This is sort of like majadara, a rice and lentil dish. But majadara is usually made with brown lentils that keep their shape. It also often has sautéed onions added at the end.

This dish takes around half an hour to make. So quick, healthy and delicious, of course.

• In a pot, place water, salt, oil and spinach.
