Add 3 tablespoons of water and the spinach and cook for 5 minutes, adding more water if necessary.
Meanwhile, place the fish in a small frying pan, cover it with water and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the fish is cooked.
Fill one-third of a small saucepan with cold water and bring to the boil. Crack the egg into a small bowl, then gently tip it into the simmering water. Lightly poach for 3–4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper.
To serve, spoon the lentils onto a plate, then top with the fish and poached egg.
