Steps:
- Rinse lentils; place in large pot. Pour enough water into the pot to cover the lentils by 2 inches; add the chicken bouillon cube to the pot. Bring to simmer; cook until lentils are just tender, about 20 minutes.
- While lentils are cooking, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chorizo until brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from pan. In the same pan, lightly fry bacon until cooked but still soft, about 5 minutes. Remove bacon, leaving drippings in pan. Chop bacon.
- Cook the tomato, tomatillo, onion, and garlic in the bacon fat until soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in the water and cilantro; transfer mixture to a blender. Hold down the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel, and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the mixture moving before leaving it on to puree until smooth.
- Stir the pureed vegetables, cooked chorizo, cooked bacon, and cumin into the lentils and cooking water. Stir over medium heat until hot, about 5 minutes. Serve in bowls; top each bowl with a teaspoon of cotija cheese and a dollop of sour cream.

- First prepare the tomatoes: bring a large pan of water to the boil and get a bowl with iced water ready. Cut crosses in the base of the tomatoes with a serrated knife and drop them into the boiling water for 10 seconds. Drain them with a slotted spoon into the iced water and drain the water immediately. Peel the skins off tomatoes, cut each in half horizontally and scrape out the seeds with a small spoon. Set the tomatoes aside and empty the pan they were boiling in.
- Rinse the lentils with plenty cold water and place them in the tomato pan with 3 cups of water, bay leaves, tomato vine if using, and half the thyme sprigs (tied with kitchen string for convenient fishing out later). Bring it to the boil, reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for 20 minutes. Take the pan off the heat and leave to cool or for at least 30 minutes, then drain the lentils and remove the vine and the herbs.
- Slice the chorizo and place the slices in a large dry frying pan or a wok. Place it over medium heat for about 10 minutes, flipping the sausage occasionally, until the chorizo is crisp and the fat has rendered. Remove the chorizo with a slotted spoon and add the onions and garlic to the pan. Cook stirring for 5 – 10 minutes until it softens.
- Add the tomatoes to the pan and turn the heat up slightly so the liquid cooks off without the tomatoes dissolving; halve any bigger pieces with a spoon whilst stirring. When the liquid is almost gone, add the lentils and chorizo into the pan. Sprinkle generously with salt, add the tomato puree, ground caraway, smoked paprika and red pepper flakes and cook over high heat, stirring, to get rid of any liquid brought in with the lentils.
