- Clean the lentils and cook in 8 fluid ounces water until soft but not pulped.

- Add the roughly chopped spinach and cook over a gentle heat until wilted.
- Add the lentils and mash all the ingredients together.
- Let the mixture stand for a short while so that all the flavors amalgamate. Just before service, add salt to taste and pour the melted butter over.
