There's nothing like a big, steaming bowl of comfort food to make everything seem all right, and this dark but delightful black lentil stew with sausage and kale is no exception. Sausage and lentils is a marriage made in heaven, and so good together, that not even kale can ruin it.

Tips and Conclusion

To make a delicious and hearty black lentil stew with sausage and kale, follow these tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the stew will taste. Look for fresh, organic vegetables and high-quality sausage.
  • Don't skimp on the spices. Spices are what give the stew its flavor. Be generous with the cumin, coriander, and paprika.
  • Cook the lentils until they are tender but not mushy. Lentils should hold their shape but be soft enough to easily mash with a fork.
  • Add the kale at the end of cooking. Kale is a delicate green that will wilt quickly. Adding it at the end of cooking will prevent it from becoming overcooked.
  • Serve the stew with crusty bread or rice. This will help to soak up all of the delicious sauce.

Conclusion

Black lentil stew with sausage and kale is a delicious, hearty, and healthy meal that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover lentils and sausage. So next time you are looking for a simple but satisfying meal, give this recipe a try.
