Put the chilli, garlic, oregano, smoked paprika and cayenne pepper into a coffee grinder or whiz with a hand blender until finely chopped. Add the oil, sugar and lemon juice and blitz again until a coarse paste.

Put the pork chops in a freezer bag, add the spice paste and massage to coat in the marinade. Set aside for at least 30 minutes.

Meanwhile in a bowl whisk together the oil and lemon juice. Season generously. Put the spinach, apple and avocado in a bowl and gently toss with the dressing. Sprinkle with the onion seeds and serve with the pork.
