Instructions
1
Mix the Greek yogurt with grated garlic, salt and dill. Let it rest at room temperature so it doesn't cool down too quickly when it comes into contact with the hot eggs.
2
Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Once it starts to foam, add the olive oil, ground paprika, chili and cumin. Heat for just a minute so the spices release their aroma, then remove from heat.
3
Bring water with vinegar to a boil in a larger pot, then reduce the temperature so the water is just gently simmering. Create a gentle whirlpool with a spoon.
4
Carefully crack an egg into the whirlpool and poach for about 3 minutes (the white should be firm while the yolk remains runny). Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel. Repeat with the remaining eggs.
5
Divide the yogurt mixture between two plates. Place two poached eggs in the center of each. Generously drizzle everything with the prepared chili butter.
6
Garnish with extra dill or mint and serve with toasted whole-grain bread or sourdough bread.
