Lentils With Garlic Sausage image

Adapted from Food & Wine, Oct 2011. A very easy, comforting dish for a cool evening. I'd serve this with a nice loaf of crusty bread and a glass of red wine.

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 lb garlic sausage or 1 lb kielbasa, cut into 3/4 inch pieces
2 leeks, white and light green parts only sliced thinly
1 carrot, diced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 cups green lentils
3 fresh thyme sprigs
1 rosemary sprig
1 bay leaf
salt
pepper
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • In a large dutch oven, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Add the sausage pieces, and cook over medium high heat until browned, about 5 minutes. Remove sausage to a plate.
  • Add the leeks, carrot, and garlic to the oil in the pan and cook over medium heat until softened, about 7 minutes. Add the lentils, herbs, bay leaf, and 5 cups water; bring to a boil. Season with salt and pepper, and simmer over low heat until the lentils are tender, about 35 minutes. Remove the herb sprigs and bay leaf.
  • In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil with the mustard. Add the sausage back into the pot, and stir until sausage is warmed through. Transfer the stew to bowls, and drizzle with the mustard oil and parsley to serve.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I would have preferred to use less cayenne pepper.

I'm a vegetarian, so I used veggie sausage instead of garlic sausage. It was still very flavorful and delicious.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning. I also found the lentils to be a bit too mushy.
