Ingredients

Ingredients

  • Greek yogurt, at room temperature
  • garlic, grated
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • salt, or to taste
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper
  • finely chopped fresh dill, or to taste
  • 0.5 stick unsalted butter
  • Aleppo chili flakes
  • smoked paprika
  • ground cumin
  • chopped fresh parsley
  • diced jalapeno pepper
  • olive oil
  • 1 pinch salt
  • white vinegar, or as needed
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 pinch sea salt

Directions

  1. Prepare your creamy base by mixing the yogurt and garlic in a bowl, then stir in the salt, pepper, cayenne, and dill until well combined, letting it rest at room temperature so the flavors can meld beautifully.

  2. Create a fragrant spiced butter by melting it over medium heat until it bubbles, then stir in the chili flakes, paprika, and cumin before setting it aside to infuse into a rich, colorful sauce.

  3. Mix up a vibrant herb oil by mashing the parsley and jalapeño in a mortar and pestle, then slowly stir in the olive oil and a pinch of salt until the mixture is bright and flavorful.

  4. Gently poach your eggs by sliding them into simmering water with a splash of vinegar for about 3 minutes, then carefully lift them out and pat them dry once the whites are set and the yolks are perfectly soft and golden.

  5. Assemble your beautiful dish by spreading the yogurt into swirls on each plate, drizzling over the jalapeño oil, and topping with the warm eggs and spiced butter for a truly impressive and delicious finish!
