- 8 sausages* (we used pork and red onion)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 x 250g pouch ready-cooked Puy lentils
- ½ x 20g pack fresh dill, roughly chopped

- juice of 1 lemon
- 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
Step by step
Get ahead
Try cooling leftovers and packing up for lunch the next day.
- Preheat the oven to 180°C, fan 160°C, gas 4. Top and tail the beetroot, peel, and cut into 3cm wedges (wear gloves to prevent staining your hands). Put the beetroot in a large roasting tray with the red onion, caraway seeds and sausages. Drizzle over the olive oil, season and toss everything together. Roast for 45 minutes, stirring once or twice, until the beetroot is tender and the onions and sausages are sticky and caramelised.
-
Make the dressing by whisking together the mustards, lemon juice and oil with some seasoning. Stir the Puy lentils into the beetroot and sausage tray (they will warm through in the heat from the tray) and drizzle over the dressing. Tip onto a platter, sprinkle over the dill and crumble over the feta to serve.Tip*Use gluten free sausages if required
