Sausages and bacon lardons simmered with green lentils, a carrot and a bouquet garni: a simple one-pot meal.

The school-canteen dish I love making again at home: just one pot, simple ingredients, and everyone goes back for seconds.

Method
- Prick the sausages with a fork so they don't burst while cooking.
- Put them in a casserole dish with 1.5 l of cold water, the bouquet garni and the carrot cut into rounds. Bring to the boil and cook for 15 to 20 minutes at a rolling boil.
- Meanwhile, fry the lardons in a dry frying pan, just until lightly golden and crisp. Slice the onion.
- Rinse the lentils and add them to the pot with the onion and lardons. Lower the heat and simmer for 25 minutes, until the lentils are tender but still whole.
- Remove the bouquet garni. Pour off some of the liquid if there's too much left: the lentils should be just coated. Add pepper, taste before adding salt (the lardons and sausages are already salty) and serve piping hot.
