Lentil Curry with Chicken and Leek

Drain lentils well in a colander. Halve leek lengthwise, rinse well and cut into 1 cm slices. Cut meat into approx. 2 cm cubes, season with salt and fry quickly in 4 tbsp. hot oil on all sides, then lift out and set aside.

Sauté the leek slices in the frying residue, add curry and extinguish with soup. Mix in crème fraîche, let sauce bubble up and season with salt, pepper and juice of one lemon. Add lentils and meat and simmer on low heat for 2-3 minutes.

Peel onion and cut into small cubes. Sauté onion and raisins in foamed butter until translucent. Add long grain rice, fry briefly and add 200 ml water. Bring long-grain rice to a boil, season with salt and simmer on low heat for 20 minutes with the lid closed until soft.

Place a strudel sheet on a damp tea towel and cut into quarters. In a deep frying pan, heat oil 4 fingers high. Bake dough pieces in order. While baking, make a dent with a ladle. Lift dough baskets out of oil with a strainer scoop and drain well on paper towels.

Loosen long grain rice with a (meat) fork and arrange in the pastry baskets. Chop the chives, mix them into the lentil curry and bring to the table together with the raisin rice.
