- Heat the milk and spring onions in a wide shallow pan with a lid. When it comes to a simmer add the fish, put on a lid, turn down to a simmer and leave for a minute. Turn off the heat and leave for 5 minutes. Scoop out the fish and onions then flake the fish.
- Put the potatoes in a pan of cold, salted water. Bring to a simmer then cook for 10-15 minutes until tender. Drain well then tip back in the pan. Mash with a large knob of butter and 2 tbsp of the milk. Cool, until just warm then mix through the fish and onions.
- Form into 4 cakes. Put the egg and the breadcrumbs on two plates. Dip the cakes in egg, then breadcrumbs. Chill for 20 minutes.
- Heat some oil in a frying pan then cook the cakes for 4-5 minutes each side until golden. Put the spinach in a pan with a knob of butter and wilt then add the mustard.
- Put spinach on a plate, top with the fishcakes then a poached egg. Spoon over any butter from the spinach pan.
