Pearl barley with sardines

This was a bit of an experiment loosely based on a recipe I saw somewhere which called for mackerel. Didn't have any mackerel, but I did have a tin of sardines.

Ingredients (serves 1)
80g pearl barley
1/2 onion, diced
Tin of sardines (mine were in tomato sauce, but I rinsed them)
1 egg
1/2 veg stock cube

* make up the stock cube with 400ml water
* fry the onion for a couple of minutes, then add the barley and stock
* simmer gently for around 35 minutes or until the barley is soft and the stock has mostly been absorbed
* meanwhile, hard boil the egg and if necessary rinse and halve the sardines
Eat!
