Rinse the kale leaves, then strip from the stalks and finely chop. Peel the shallot, keeping it whole, then thinly slice into rings
Add the kale to the large bowl with the juice of half the lemon, 1/2 tsp olive oil and a pinch of salt. Massage the kale for 1-2 mins, until softened. Add the shallot to the kale, toss to coat, then set aside

Drain the tofu, pat dry with paper towel and cut into 2cm cubes. Finely chop or crush the garlic
Heat the medium frying pan with 1 tsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the tofu and cook for 8-10 mins, turning occasionally, until golden
In the final 1 min, add the garlic, miso paste, half the maple syrup and 1 tbsp water (1/2 tbsp for 1 person). Toss to coat the tofu until glazed. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, then remove from the pan and set aside

Meanwhile, core and thinly slice the apple. Finely chop the dill. Drain and rinse the half tin of lentils
In the small bowl, combine the mustard, vinegar, the remaining maple syrup, 1 tsp olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside

Reheat the frying pan on medium heat. Once hot, add the lentils and a splash of water and cook for 2-3 mins, until warmed through. Stir in half the mustard dressing and season with a pinch of salt and pepper
Add the lentils, apple, half the dill, the pumpkin seeds and the remaining dressing to the bowl with the kale and toss to coat
Share the salad between bowls, topped with the tofu and remaining dill. Serve with the remaining lemon, cut into wedges
