Turkish Eggs (Cilbir)
A simple and fancy looking breakfast with minimal ingredients! Perfectly poached egg lies in the center of a thick yogurt garlic sauce covered with a red pepper infused butter! Toasted bread is the best compliment with these poached eggs. Take a big pinch of toasted bread dip it in the sauce and egg, devour! Yuummm!
My son is a great yogurt lover so he enjoyed every bit of it! Nowadays we sometimes switch to brunch by skipping breakfast and lunch! So I try hard to make it special and attractive for the kids! That spicy garlic butter is spot on here which brings together all components! we relished it!
If you do not like poached eggs you may make sunny side up. The look of the dish attracted me to try this one! Give this a try and I’m sure you are gonna love it if you are a yogurt lover!
