Ingredients

  • 1 cup rinsed lentils
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 medium onions, chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 medium-sized can tomatoes
  • 2 pounds polish sausage
  • 1 teaspoon sugar,
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper,
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Directions

1

Put 1 cup rinsed lentils in a large saucepan with salted water to cover.

2

Bring the lentils to a boil, cover them, and cook them over low heat for about 20 minutes, or until they are tender but still hold their shape. Drain them and reserve the cooking liquid.

3

Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a flame proof casserole.

4

Stir in 2 medium onions, chopped and 3 garlic cloves, crushed, and cook the mixture until the onions are tender. #Mix in 1 medium-sized can tomatoes, drained and chopped, and cook the mixture over moderate heat until almost all the liquid has evaporated.

5

Peel the casing from 2 pounds polish sausage and cut the meat into slices about 1/2 inch thick.

6

Toss the sausage with the tomato mixture and add the lentils, 1 teaspoon sugar, ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, 1 bay leaf and 1 teaspoon salt.

7

Stir in a little of the lentil liquid and bake the mixture in a moderate oven for about 30 minutes.

8

Add more lentil liquid if the mixture looks dry during baking.
