How to make Vegan Sausage Lentil Curry

Tips from the cook

  • Rinse the lentils before cooking.
  • Crumble the vegan sausage in and stir it through, so it spreads evenly.
  • Keep a tight lid on and simmer for 20 minutes, until the lentils are very tender.
  • Stir in the garam masala at the end, to keep its aroma.
