Sausage, Lentil and Rice Bake

Method

• step 1

  Pre-heat Oven to about 200C. Heat about 2 tbsp of the artichoke oil in a oven proof dish and add the chopped onion. Once onions are soft, add the artichoke (you can chop that into smaller pieces if you wish)

• step 2

  After a couple of minutes, add the sausages and brown. Meanwhile boil the lentils for approximately 5 mins then drain.

• step 3

  Add the rice, and stir. Once the rice has been coated in the oil stir in the chopped tomatoes, lemon juice, lentils, cinnamon and chilli powder.

• step 4

  Next, stir in the veg stock, and bring to the boil. Allow to simmer for about 5 mins.

• step 5

  Remove from heat, put lid on dish and place in the oven for about 20mins until all liquid has been soaked up. I would just eat this on its' own or you could serve with a salad.
