When cooked, remove the pork and wrap loosely in foil.

Stir in the mustard and chutney.

Drain and rinse the lentils, then add them to the pan with the water (see ingredients for amount).

Lower the heat to medium and let the water evaporate, stirring occasionally, 2-3 mins.

Step 11

Meanwhile, mix a squeeze of lemon juice and a drizzle of oil together in a large bowl.
