35 minutes

Sausages stewed with lentils are a cozy rustic dish rooted in European cuisine. In this recipe, tender sausages are first fried to a crispy golden brown and then simmered in beer with honey and yeast, gaining a rich, slightly caramel flavor. The lentils absorb the rich broth with vegetables and mushrooms, becoming soft and aromatic. This dish is perfect for cold evenings when you want something nourishing and comforting. It is served with crispy white bread to soak up every drop of the delicious sauce.
