Ingredients<\/p>\nIngredients<\/p>\n
1 cup plain Greek yoghurt, at room temperature<\/p>\n
1\u20132 garlic cloves, finely minced<\/p>\n
2 eggs<\/p>\n
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil<\/p>\n
1\u20132 tablespoons vinegar, optional<\/p>\n
2 teaspoons Aleppo pepper or red pepper flakes<\/p>\n
Salt, to taste<\/p>\n
Rustic bread, for serving<\/p>\n
Method<\/p>\n
Prepare the yoghurt:
\nIn a bowl, combine the room-temperature yoghurt, garlic and a good pinch of salt. Whisk until smooth. Divide between two serving bowls.<\/p>\n
Poach the eggs:
\nBring a saucepan of water to a gentle boil and add the vinegar.<\/p>\n
Crack one egg into a fine-mesh sieve over a bowl. Gently swirl it around to drain the thinner part of the egg white. Transfer the egg to a small ramekin.<\/p>\n
Stir the boiling water with a wooden spoon to create a gentle whirlpool. Carefully slide the egg into the centre and poach for 2\u20133 minutes.<\/p>\n
Remove the egg with a slotted spoon and place it briefly on a plate lined with kitchen paper. Repeat with the second egg.<\/p>\n
Make the spiced oil:
\nWhile the second egg is cooking, heat the olive oil and Aleppo pepper in a small pan over medium heat for a few seconds, until fragrant.<\/p>\n
Assemble:
\nPlace a poached egg on top of each bowl of yoghurt. Drizzle generously with the warm spiced olive oil.<\/p>\n
Serve immediately with rustic bread for dipping.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
