Step by step
Get ahead
Make the salad and dressing the day before, keep separate, cover and chill.
                    - Cook the rice and lentils in separate pans of boiling water for 20-25 minutes until tender. Drain well and set aside to cool.
 - Deseed the tomatoes and dice them, along with all the vegetables and the chilli. Put in a large bowl; mix in the lentils and rice.
 - Cut away the peel and pith from 1 lemon. Cut the flesh into segments, then into tiny pieces; add to the bowl. Mix the juice from the second lemon with 100ml oil; season. Set aside.
 - Mix the yogurt dressing ingredients, season and sprinkle with sumac.
 - Stir the lemony oil into the salad just before serving; serve the yogurt dressing on the side.
