Ingredients

  • 200g low-fat Greek yogurt
  • ½ garlic clove, crushed
  • ½ lemon, zest and 1 tsp juice
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 260g spinach
  • 4 eggs
  • 25g unsalted butter
  • ½ tsp dried chilli flakes
  • 1 tsp sweet smoked paprika

Method

  1. Mix the yogurt, garlic, lemon zest and juice; season and set aside. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large frying pan and cook the spinach until just wilted. Remove the spinach from the pan, squeeze out the excess water and season.

  2. Warm the remaining 1 tbsp oil in the pan over a medium heat. Return the spinach to the pan, spreading evenly over the base. Make 4 wells in the leaves; crack an egg into each. Cook for 5-6 minutes, until the whites are set and yolks still soft.

  3. In a small pan, heat the butter until foaming. Swirl in the chilli, paprika and a pinch of salt for a couple of seconds, then take off the heat. Spoon the yogurt over the eggs, drizzle over the chilli butter and serve with toasted pitta bread, if liked.
