Cooking Steps
Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
Trim the carrot, then halve lengthways (no need to peel). Chop into roughly 1cm wide, 5cm long batons.
Pop the sausages onto one side of a large baking tray.
Put the carrots on the other side of the tray. Drizzle with oil, sprinkle over half the chermoula spice mix, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.
When the oven is hot, bake the sausages and carrot on the middle shelf until golden brown and cooked through, 20-25 mins.
Turn halfway through. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat. The sausages are cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
Meanwhile, drain and rinse the lentils in a sieve.
Halve, peel and thinly slice the onion. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium heat.
Add the onion to the pan and stir-fry until softened, 6-8 mins. Season with salt and pepper.
Once softened, add the tomato puree, half the garlic and the remaining chermoula spice mix to the onions. Cook until fragrant, 1 min.
Stir in the lentils, red wine stock, sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amonts).
Stir to combine, bring to the boil and simmer until thickened, 4-5 mins.
When the carrots have a few mins remaining, remove from the oven. Drizzle over the honey (see pantry for amount), toss to coat, then return to the oven for the remaining time.
While the lentils simmer, roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all).
Halve the ciabatta. Drizzle with oil and spread over the remaining garlic. Season with salt, then bake on the top shelf of the oven until golden, 4-5 mins.
When ready, stir the roasted carrots, the hard Italian style cheese, half the parsley and the butter (see pantry for amount) through the lentils.
Once combined and melted, remove from the heat.
Taste and season with salt and pepper. Add a splash of water if it's a little thick.
Slice the sausages, on a diagonal angle, into thirds.
Share the lentils between your bowls. Top with the sausages.
Sprinkle over the remaining parsley.
Cut the ciabatta into triangles and serve alongside.
Enjoy!

Review summary
Updated on Aug 2026- Flavour: The spiced lentil sauce divides opinion — some love the warmth of the chermoula, while others find the curry-like flavour unexpected for a cassoulet.
- Ease of prep: Most find it straightforward, though a large frying pan is helpful to bring everything together comfortably.
- Suggestions: Double the water when simmering the lentils, as a good amount evaporates and the sauce can become quite thick; adding chilli is an easy way to boost the heat if you like a little spice.
- Next-day meals: This is a filling, protein-rich dish, so smaller appetites may want to adjust portion sizes accordingly.
