Why Don’t We Eat This More?
This week we’re making a true French classic — Saucisse aux Lentilles. Sounds fancy, tastes incredible, but honestly… it’s one of the simplest comfort dishes you can make at home. Crispy sausages, rich lentils, a bit of wine, a few aromatics, and suddenly your midweek dinner feels like a Parisian bistro.
I love this dish because it’s the perfect way to bring something new into the weekly meal rota without making life complicated. Put a plate of sausages and lentils on the table and people might shrug… but say “Saucisse aux Lentilles” in your best French accent and suddenly you’re a culinary genius.
Simple food, done properly — that’s the magic of French cooking.

Your brother may be the big star in Hollywood, but you get the Academy Award in the kitchen. Great recipe
Does Tom cook? Have you tried @Ranchers Burnt Ends sausage?
Fennel and apple make a great combination for a salad. I love lentils and will definitely try out the recipe! Thanks!
that slaw looks fucking amazing
English bangers don't go well with lentils as in the French dish, they are not meaty enough, texture is too soft. You need sturdy "saucisses de Toulouse" (available at Borough market I happen to know). And don't forget to eat them with proper Dijon mustard! From a French chef, with love (though I'm also half Kentish) 😃 I will subscribe for the fun
OF COURSE we need to see "Mikey" on the show.
Amazing! Yeah we wanna see Mikey
When will you be appearing on The Dish podcast? That would be so cool!
Me: Who does this guy remind me of? I just can't put my finger on it…
🤦♀️
Excellent recipe BTW. Will definitely try.
