Roasted Sausages With Braised Lentils - cooking recipe

Ingredients

olive oil or canola oil
4 -6 4 -6 large lamb sausages or 4 -6 large Italian sausage
1 red onions or 1 yellow onion
1 carrot, finely chopped
1 stalk celery, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 cup dry green lentils
3 3 cups beef stock or 3 cups vegetable stock

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a heavy skillet set over medium-high heat and brown the sausages (don't worry about cooking them through), setting aside on a plate once browned.
Add a little more oil to the skillet and saute the onion, carrot, and celery for 3 to 4 minutes, until softened.
Add the lentils and the stock and bring to a simmer.
Nestle the sausages back into the lentils and slide the skillet into the oven, then cook for 40 to 45 minutes, until the sausages are cooked through and the lentils are soft.
