Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 425. In a 5 to 6 quart pot, heat 3 T oil over medium-high heat. Add chile, celery, carrots, and chopped onion and cook, stirring often, until vegetables soften, about 5 minutes. Add 2 t garam masala and cook, stirring, about 30 seconds. Add thyme and 1 t mustard; cook 1 minute. Stir in lentils, 3 cups broth, and 1/2 t salt. Cover and bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until lentils are just tender, about 40 minutes, checking occasionally and adding more broth if needed so they're covered in liquid. Meanwhile, in a 9x13 inch baking dish, whisk together honey, 1/2 t salt, and remaining 4 T oil, 2 1/2 t garam masala and 1 t mustard. Add squash and toss until well coated.
Roast squash 15 minutes. Stir in onion chunks and Brussels sprouts and cook until vegetables are tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, 15 to 20 more minutes. Drain any excess liquid from lentils and discard chile. Stir in orange juice and transfer lentils to a shallow bowl. Spoon roasted vegetables on top, serve with crème fraiche, and season to taste with more salt.
