Receta Lentil, Sausage and Vegetable Stew
Based loosely on Curry Lentil Soup (on this site by John Spottiswood) I took several recipe liberties considering ingredients on hand, personal preferences and desired result. More a stew than a soup by the time I was done. With the seasonings and sausage - excuse the slang - "it's a bomb!"

- Wash and rinse lentils. Place in 8-quart saucepot with 4 cups of the water. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to maintain a simmer, with the pan lid placed slightly ajar. Cook 15 minutes, checking water level and adding additional if needed.
- Meanwhile, break up sausage in small pieces into large frypan. Place over medium heat and cook until it begins to brown on edges and sufficient fat is released to saute vegetables (or add a tablespoon olive oil as needed.)
- Add onions, garlic, celery, carrots, zucchini, ginger, salt, cumin and coriander seeds to sausage, sauting for 4-5 more minutes until vegetables are lightly golden brown.
- Add sausage and vegetables together with tomatoes to lentils in saucepot. Continue cooking for 15 minutes until lentils are tender, adding additional water as needed to make a stew consistency.
- Correct for seasonings. Ladle into soup bowls and garnish each with a dollup of sour cream.
