  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon chili flakes
  • Fresh herbs (dill or parsley) for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt with minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Stir until smooth and creamy to create the yogurt base.
  2. Bring a saucepan of water to a gentle boil. Crack eggs into small bowls, then carefully slide them into the water. Poach for 3-4 minutes until whites are set but yolks are runny.
  3. Melt butter in a small pan over medium heat, add paprika and chili flakes, infusing for 1-2 minutes.
  4. Spread the yogurt mixture on a serving plate, place poached eggs on top, drizzle with the spiced butter, and garnish with fresh herbs.

Notes

  • Store leftovers separately in airtight containers; yogurt base lasts 3 days, poached eggs up to 2 days.
  • For best results, poach eggs fresh before serving.
  • Substitute Greek yogurt with regular yogurt if needed, keeping in mind the consistency difference.
