Ingredients

• ▢ 1/2 cup full fat greek yogurt
• ▢ 3 eggs
• ▢ A few sprigs of sage
• ▢ 4 tbsp butter you can use less, but I wanted some extra for drizzlng over the eggs at the end
• ▢ A few stems of broccolini or another leafy green
• ▢ 2 cloves garlic sliced
• ▢ Olive oil
• ▢ Sourdough bread
• ▢ Sea salt
• ▢ Pepper
• ▢ Red pepper flakes

The gremolata:

• ▢ 1 small bunch of parsley about 3/4 cup
• ▢ 1 clove garlic
• ▢ 1 large lemon zested and juiced.
• ▢ A little drizzle of olive oil

Instructions 

• Make your gremolata by combining all ingredients in a mortar & pestle. Alternatively you could chop/microplane everything super small and combine. I just find the mortar and pestle to be a little quicker.
• In a skillet, add slices of garlic, olive oil and broccolini. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until still bright green, but stems of broccolini are tender. Transfer to a cutting board and roughly chop.
• In the same skillet, add butter and sage. Crack 3 eggs into the skillet and season with salt, pepper and red pepper flakes. Cook until eggs are slightly runny but fully cooked. The sage should get crispy and will cook with the eggs.
• Spoon yogurt into a bowl and spread out in an even layer. Add eggs over top, followed by chopped broccolini. Spoon gremolata and more of the sage butter (what the eggs cooked in) over top. Serve with crispy bread and enjoy!
