Ingredients

336g pack Quorn Vegetarian Sausages, defrosted
1 tbsp vegetable oil
2 packs microwave mixed grains - For the lentils:
3 tbsp olive oil
2 leeks, finely sliced
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
4 celery sticks, finely chopped
2 parsnips, peeled and diced
1 carrot, peeled and diced
150g dried green lentils
2 tbsp tomato purée
½ tsp crushed chillies
1 vegetable stock pot, made up to 1.5 ltr
100g sliced curly kale

Method

Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large, lidded saucepan over a medium heat. Add the leeks and cook for 5 mins. Add the chopped garlic, celery, parsnips and carrot and cook, stirring, for 5 mins more.
Stir in the lentils, tomato purée and chilli flakes, followed by the stock. Bring to the boil, cover and simmer over a low heat for 25 mins until the lentils are soft. Stir in the kale and simmer for 5 mins more until the vegetables are all tender and the pot is thick and soupy. Season to taste.
Meanwhile heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large frying pan, slice the Quorn Sausages on an angle to make large coin-like shapes, fry on each side for 3-4 mins until browned.
Prepare the mixed grains as per pack instructions.
To serve, place a large spoon of the mixed grains in the base of a pasta bowl, then generously top with lentils and crispy sliced sausage. Sprinkle chopped parsley to finish.
