Caramelize the sugar in a pot at medium temperature and deglaze it with the balsamic vinegar and the beetroot juice, cook until the liquid isreduced by half. Add the cooked lentils and toss well. Finally, add in the butter cubes and season.
Thoroughly wash and dry off the scallops. Heat some oil in a frying pan over high heat, then add the scallops and grill for about 30 seconds on each side. Season with Fleur de Sel.
Arrange the lentils on the prepared plates, add 2 scallops each, add some roasted sesame and nori powder. Add radicchios on the side and sprinkle with both dressings. For some finishing touches add some chives and cress.
