Pork Belly with Chili and Honey on Red Lentils

Preheat the oven to 80 °C.

Cut the leek in half lengthwise and rinse. Cut the white part of the leek into thin rings and the rest lengthwise into strips about one centimeter thick. Squeeze the lemon.

Season the strips with salt and sugar. Sauté the leek rings with a clove of chopped garlic in a little oil, add a pinch of cumin and the lentils. Then fill up with the chicken broth. Cover the lid and cook the lentils at low temperature for about 20 to 30 minutes until they are very soft.

Toast the coriander seeds in a non-stick frying pan and then grind them in a mortar.

Grind the lentils with a hand blender, season with pepper, salt, curry, a dash of juice from a lemon and keep warm. Steam the leek strips in a frying pan with butter until soft and season.

Finally, divide the leeks evenly among four plates, cut the steaks in half and always alternate with the lentil puree. Draw the marinade of the steaks as a sauce around the outside and garnish with fresh coriander.

Bake the papadams in the stove until crispy shortly before serving, then break them up and stick them into the lentil puree as a garnish.
