Wash the carrots under cold water, then peel them with a knife on a cutting board. Cut them into small cubes, about 1 cm.
Peel the onion and cut it into thin slices.
Heat the nonstick skillet over medium heat with no fat. Add the onion and cook it for 2 min, stirring with the wooden spoon, until it turns translucent.
Add the chopped carrots to the skillet with the onion. Add a little water (2-3 tbsp) so nothing sticks, then cover and let it cook for 5 min over low heat, stirring now and then.
Meanwhile, slice the sausages into 1 cm thick rounds. Add them to the skillet with the carrots and onion. Brown for 3 min over medium heat, uncovered.
Drain the canned lentils in the colander under cold water. Add them to the skillet with the sausages and veggies. Mix well and let it heat for 2 min over low heat.
Add a pinch of salt and pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve hot, right from the skillet or on plates.
