Pinch of cayenne pepper

Fresh eggs, whether purchased at the farmers' market or taken from your own home coop, are a great start to any recipe that calls for eggs. This one is adapted from "The Fresh Egg Cookbook" by Jennifer Trainer Thompson and gives the eggs the unlikely partners of plain Greek yogurt and fresh mint. It's served with pita or flatbread. A strange combination? You won't think so once you've started to eat.

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup plain Greek yogurt, 2 percent milk fat or whole
1 small garlic clove, finely minced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons butter
6 fresh mint leaves
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon hot red-pepper flakes
1 tablespoon white vinegar
8 eggs
Toasted pita bread or another flatbread, for serving

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, stir the yogurt and garlic together. Season to taste with salt and pepper and set aside for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  • When ready to cook, use a large spoon to divide the yogurt on four serving plates, making large dollops. Use the back of a spoon to spread each dollop into a large oval, big enough to hold two eggs.
  • In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat until it foams. Add mint, paprika and red pepper flakes and stir until fragrant. Turn off the heat and keep warm.
  • In a large, deep skillet, combine two inches of water and the vinegar. Bring to a simmer. Crack the eggs gently into the water. Simmer until softly cooked, about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, lift eggs out one at a time, holding a paper towel under the spoon to avoid dripping water onto the yogurt. Place two eggs on each plateful of yogurt. Remove mint leaves from the warm spiced butter, then use a spoon to drizzle butter over the eggs. Grind black pepper onto each egg, and serve immediately with hot toasted pita bread.

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup plain yogurt
2 large garlic cloves, pressed
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
12 fresh sage leaves
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper
1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
8 eggs
Warm pita bread

Steps:

  • Stir yogurt and garlic in small bowl to blend. Season to taste with salt. Divide mixture equally among 4 plates, spreading to coat center.
  • Melt butter in heavy small saucepan over medium heat. Add sage, paprika and red pepper and stir just until butter sizzles. Remove from heat. Season with salt.
  • Add vinegar to large skillet of simmering water and return mixture to simmer. Crack eggs into water. Simmer until eggs are softly cooked, about 3 minutes. Using slotted spoon, remove eggs from water, drain briefly and place 2 eggs atop yogurt on each plate.
  • Rewarm butter mixture if necessary; spoon over eggs and serve immediately with pita bread.

Tips:

  • Use the freshest eggs possible for the best flavor and texture.
  • Bring the water to a gentle simmer before adding the eggs. A rolling boil will cause the eggs to cook too quickly and become tough.
  • Add a little vinegar or lemon juice to the water to help the eggs hold their shape.
  • Cook the eggs for 3-4 minutes for a soft-boiled egg, 4-5 minutes for a medium-boiled egg, and 5-6 minutes for a hard-boiled egg.
  • Immediately transfer the eggs to an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
  • Serve the eggs with yogurt, salt, pepper, and your favorite toppings.
