Heat the oil in a heavy-based casserole dish. Add the sausages and cook for a few minutes on each side until golden all over, then remove from the pan and put on a plate

Add the red onion and carrot, and cook gently until just soft. Add the garlic and cook for a minute, then return the sausages to the pan with the lentils, stock and thyme, if using

Cover with foil and a casserole lid, and simmer gently for 25 minutes or until the lentils and sausages are cooked
