Heat oven to 220c/200c fan/gas 7. Heat half the oil in a non-stick pan and soften onion for 5 minutes.
Stir in lentils, pour over the stock, then cover and simmer for 25 minutes until the lentils are just cooked and most of the liquid has evaporated. If lentils look dry before they've finished cooking, splash in a little water.
Meanwhile, put sausages in a small roasting tin, drizzle with the remaining oil and roast for 25 minutes, adding the tomatoes with 8 minutes to go and giving the tin a good shake.
Season lentils, then spoon onto plates and top with sausages, tomatoes and any juices.
