We used chorizo instead of veg sausages, & half a cabbage. Instead of crumbling stock cubes and pouring water over, pre-made the stock up first. Used canned lentils rather than dry & reduced cooking time to around 25 mins (excluding browning of sausages prior). Pretty you'd recipe, will reduce liquid more next tone to make it thicker. Nice hearty winter dinner! - 15 Jul 2012
