Cook the lentils in plenty of boiling water for about 30 minutes until tender. Transfer to a colander, rinse briefly in cold water, and drain. In the meantime, wash and trim the zucchini. Peel the carrots. Finely slice both using a mandoline. Wash the chives, shake dry, and cut into fine rolls. Wash the grapes under warm water, remove the stems, and halve them. Squeeze the lemon and mix the juice in a bowl with the oil, chili powder, curry powder, and cumin. Stir in the honey and season the dressing with salt and pepper. Wash the apple, halve it, then quarter it, and remove the core. Thinly slice the apple directly into the dressing to prevent it from browning. Add the remaining ingredients to the dressing and mix well. Season the salad with salt.
