Ingredients

400g dry lentils

2 liters vegetable broth

30ml extra-virgin olive oil

450g turkey sausage

1 large onion, finely chopped

2 stalks celery, finely chopped

4 cloves garlic, minced

2 tomatoes, peeled, seeded, and finely chopped

5g ground turmeric

5g ground cumin

2.5g dried thyme leaves

1 pinch crushed red pepper flakes

sea salt to taste

225g plain low-fat yogurt

15g chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Directions

Step 1

In a large pot, bring lentils and vegetable broth to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and let it simmer for 10 minutes.

Step 2

Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add sausage, onion, celery, and garlic; cook and stir until the sausage is crumbly and no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, turmeric, cumin, thyme, and red pepper flakes; cook for 5 more minutes.

Step 3

Stir the sausage mixture into the simmering lentils. Continue to simmer until the lentils are tender, about 20 to 30 minutes. Season to taste with salt. Garnish each serving with a dollop of yogurt and a sprinkle of chopped parsley.
