This is such a hearty, full flavoured recipe that will have your house smelling amazing! Perfect in the winter months as a cosy dinner for two. 

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion, finely diced 
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 3 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 6 vegetarian sausages
  • 1x 400g tin chopped tomatoes
  • 1 tbsp tomato puree
  • 200ml vegetable stock
  • 1 x 250g pouch of Merchant Gourmet Tomatoey French Puy & Green Lentils
  • 150g spinach, roughly chopped

  •  

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large, lidded casserole dish. Fry the onion for 5-6 minutes or until softened. Add the garlic, oregano and thyme with a good pinch of salt and pepper and cook for a couple of minutes more until fragrant.
  2. Add the sausages with a little more olive oil if needed to prevent sticking to the pan, and fry for 5-10 minutes, or until golden brown all over. Add the chopped tomatoes, tomato puree and vegetable stock and stir to combine. Taste and season. Bring to a gentle simmer, then cover with the lid and cook for 15 minutes.
  3. Remove the lid, stir through the lentils and simmer for a further 5 minutes, cooking off any excess liquid. Stir through the spinach to wilt. 
  4. Serve with extra sprigs of fresh thyme and a drizzle of olive oil.

  • Maybe due to my eye diseases but having followed you on Instagram I still cannot find where to enter the 6 month FOC items competition?

    Please advise.
