Steps:
- Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Brown sausage, about 6 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
- Add onion, carrots, celery, and garlic to pan; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the lentils, stock, 3 1/2 cups water, bay leaf, 1 teaspoon rosemary, and remaining 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt. Bring stew to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until lentils are just tender, about 50 minutes.

SAUSAGE AND LENTIL STEW
Steps:
- Rinse the lentils and cull them for small stones and debris. Put them in a heavy 4-quart pot with a tight-fitting lid. Cut thick sausages into 1-inch lengths or thin ones into 2-inch lengths, and put them in the pot. Clean and thinly slice the celery, chop the leaves, peel and finely chop the onion, and add it all to the pot.
- Pour in the water, and add the salt and a few grindings of black pepper. Stir all the ingredients together, cover, and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
- Reduce the heat and cook at a lively simmer for about 1 hour, stirring from time to time to prevent the lentils from burning. When the sausages and lentils are cooked and the liquid has thickened, serve piping hot in bowls.
BLACK LENTIL STEW WITH SAUSAGE AND KALE
There's nothing like a big, steaming bowl of comfort food to make everything seem all right, and this dark but delightful black lentil stew with sausage and kale is no exception. Sausage and lentils is a marriage made in heaven, and so good together, that not even kale can ruin it. I'm kidding, and actually love kale, but if you're not the biggest fan in the world, maybe try it one more time in this.
