🛒 Ingredients

✓ 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (full-fat)
✓ 2 cloves garlic, minced
✓ 1 tablespoon lemon juice
✓ 4 large eggs
✓ 2 tablespoons ghee or grass-fed butter
✓ 8-10 fresh sage leaves
✓ 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (Aleppo pepper preferred)
✓ Sea salt to taste
✓ Black pepper to taste
✓ 1 tablespoon white vinegar (for poaching)
✓ Fresh dill for garnish
✓ Whole grain toast for serving (optional)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Combine Greek yogurt with minced garlic, lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper in a small bowl. Mix until smooth and season to taste. Divide between two bowls and spread evenly.

2. Fill a shallow pan with water and bring to a gentle simmer. Add white vinegar to the water.

3. Crack eggs into separate small cups. Create a gentle whirlpool in the simmering water and slide eggs in one at a time. Poach for 3-4 minutes until whites are set but yolks remain runny.

4. While eggs poach, melt ghee in a small skillet over medium heat. Add sage leaves and cook for 1-2 minutes until crispy. Add red pepper flakes and swirl to infuse.

5. Using a slotted spoon, carefully remove poached eggs and place two on each yogurt bed.

6. Drizzle the warm sage-infused ghee over the eggs and yogurt. Garnish with fresh dill, additional red pepper flakes, and cracked black pepper.

7. Serve immediately while eggs are warm and yogurt is cool for optimal flavor contrast.
