Steps:
- Bring water to a boil in a medium pot. Add lentils to the boiling water, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cover and let cook until soft, 25 to 30 minutes.
- Puree the lentils into a thick paste using a food processor or blender.
- Heat olive oil in large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic; cook and stir, 1 to 2 minutes. Add 1/4 cup chicken broth and continue to cook until the onion starts to soften, 1 to 2 minutes more.
- Add turmeric, cumin, chili powder, and red pepper flakes to the broth and stir until the liquid is very orange. Stir in tomatoes and another 1/2 cup of broth. Cover and cook, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Add remaining broth. Gradually stir lentil puree, a little at a time, until it is all mixed in. The mixture should be thick and creamy. Stir in chicken sausage. Cover the pot, reduce heat to low, and cook, checking and stirring occasionally, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat, let cool for 2 minutes, then serve warm.

Steps:
- Heat half the oil in a large flameproof casserole dish, brown the drumsticks on all sides, then transfer to a plate.
- Add the onions and remaining oil to the pan, and cook for 5 mins or so until soft. Add the lentils, tomatoes, 1 can of water and the stock cube. Return the drumsticks to the pan. Bring to the boil, then turn down the heat, put on a lid and simmer for 30 mins or until tender. Keep an eye on the stew and add a little water if it is drying out. Remove the lid and cook for another 10 mins, or until the sauce has thickened, then season.
- Meanwhile, make the gremolata. Mix the lemon zest, garlic and parsley together. Sprinkle over the cooked stew and serve with a chunk of crusty bread.
