Cooking method

Cooking time: 1 h 30 min

1. Rinse the black lentils thoroughly using a sieve, then place them in a saucepan, pour water over them and cook until tender over low heat. It will take you 25-30 minutes. Strain the cooked lentils and add salt.
2. Put the oven to heat up to 200 degrees.
3. Wash, peel and cut into small cubes: garlic, shallots, bell pepper, jalapeno pepper. Put the vegetables in a deep bowl.
4. Wash the cilantro, dry it and chop it coarsely or pick it with your hands and send it to the vegetables. Leave a little cilantro for serving.
5. In a bowl, mix the corn and olive oil, and then put it on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 5-7 minutes in the oven. As soon as the corn turns dark, it is ready.
6. Cool the finished corn a little and add it to a bowl with vegetables and coriander, pour lime juice, salt, pepper and mix.
7. Heat a frying pan over medium heat, brush it with olive oil and fry the pre-salted and peppered salmon until golden brown (about 6-7 minutes on one side, the same on the other).
8. Put the lentils on a large dish, put the fish on top, and on it and around lentils - vegetable salsa.

Serve salmon with lentils, garnishing the dish with cilantro sprigs.

Bon appetit!
