Method
Step 1 of 4
Cook the lentils in a saucepan of boiling water according to the packet instructions. Drain well.
Step 2 of 4
Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil and the butter in a frying pan over a medium heat, add the onion and cook slowly for 10 minutes or until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon to a plate and turn the heat up to high. Add another 2 tablespoons of the oil to the pan and fry the eggplant in batches until coloured and softened.
Step 3 of 4
Return the onion to the pan with the garlic, curry powder and cooked lentils and fry for a further minute to warm through. Season with salt and pepper and stir in the parsley.
Step 4 of 4
Heat a frying pan over a high heat, then add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil. Season the scallops with salt and pepper, place them in the frying pan and cook for 1 minute on each side or until just cooked through. Serve the scallops immediately with the spiced lentils and Greek yogurt, garnished with parsley leaves.
