  1. In a large saucepan, bring 3 cups of water to a boil over high heat. Add the lentils. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for about 25 minutes, or until the lentils are just tender. Drain well. Arrange the lentils over large baking tray to cool completely.
  2. In a small bowl, mix all the dry spices together. Place the cutlets on a baking tray and coat with 2 tablespoons of the oil. Coat both sides of the cutlets with the spice mixture. Set aside to marinate while you prepare the barbecue for medium-high heat.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the lentils, chickpeas, celery, carrot, capsicum, spring onions, mint, parsley, garlic, and lemon zest. Add the lemon juice and remaining 1/4 cup oil and toss to coat. Season the salad to taste with salt and pepper.
  4. Barbecue the cutlets for about 3 minutes per side, or until nicely charred on the outside and the internal temperature of the cutlets is 50C for medium-rare doneness. Set the cutlets aside to rest for 3 minutes. Arrange the mixed greens on a platter and spoon the lentil salad over. Serve with the cutlets.
