A delightful Mediterranean dish featuring poached eggs on creamy herbed yogurt, drizzled with spiced butter.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh herbs (such as dill or mint), chopped
  • Crusty bread, for serving

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine the yogurt with the minced garlic. Season with salt, pepper, and your chopped herbs. Let it sit so the flavors meld.
  2. Bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer. Carefully poach the eggs, one at a time, making sure the whites are set but the yolks stay runny.
  3. In a small saucepan, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add the paprika and fry for about a minute, letting the aroma waft through your kitchen.
  4. To serve, spread a generous layer of herbed yogurt on a plate. Top it with the poached eggs, then drizzle the warm, spiced butter over them. Pair with slices of crusty bread for dipping.

Notes

Use fresh herbs based on what you have available. For a spicy kick, add sautéed chili flakes to the spiced butter.
