Spiced Lentil and Sausage Soup

Method

1. Sauté the sausage: Heat a large pot over medium heat and cook the sausage slices for 2-3 minutes until slightly browned. Remove and set aside.

2. Prepare the vegetables: Add the diced carrot to the pot and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.

3. Cook the lentils: Add the lentils, chicken broth, and smoked paprika. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the lentils are tender.

4. Combine and season: Stir the sausage back into the pot and let it heat through for 3-5 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste.

5. Serve: Ladle into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley or a squeeze of lemon juice.
