Method

  1. Slice the pork into 4 pieces then gently pound flat under baking paper using a rolling pin or heavy pan. Dust with seasoned flour then shake off any excess. Set aside 125ml of the stock and bring the rest to a boil. Add the lentils and cook until just tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and keep warm.
  2. Heat a non-stick frying pan and add 1 tbsp oil. Brown the pork on both sides, remove from the pan. Add the wine, 125ml stock and lemon juice to the pan and bring to a boil. Scrape any bits from the bottom of the pan and reduce by half; add the pork and the lemon slices. Heat through then spoon the pork and sauce over the lentils. Sprinkle with parsley.

    Looks very pretty in the picture but my pork came out a lot darker making the whole dish look a bit samey and unappetising. Not my favourite meal and think if I was going to make it again it would be with chicken.

    I've made this a couple of times now and it always goes down well. I now had a handful of spinach into the lentils just before serving to liven the lentils up and give them a bit more colour. I love this dish with its lemony flavour.
