Poached Egg With Baked Yogurt And Watercress Recipes

TURKISH POACHED EGGS WITH GARLIC YOGURT

Steps:

• Combine the yogurt, garlic, dill, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl; stir until smooth. Spread the yogurt on 4 plates.
• Bring about 3 inches of water to a boil in a wide pot. Add the vinegar and reduce the heat to medium to maintain a gentle simmer. Crack 4 eggs into individual small bowls or ramekins. Carefully lower each egg into the water. Cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 3 minutes. Remove the poached eggs with a slotted spoon and blot the bottoms dry on a kitchen towel. Divide among the plates. Let the water return to a simmer and repeat with the remaining 4 eggs; add to the plates. Season the eggs with a pinch each of salt and red pepper flakes.
• Toast the walnuts in a small skillet over medium heat, stirring, until golden, about 4 minutes. Stir in a pinch of red pepper flakes, then stir in the butter until melted. Spoon over the eggs.
• Toss the watercress with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl; divide among the plates. Serve with the bread.

OVEN POACHED EGGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. For easier clean-up, grease each muffin cup. Then add 1 tablespoon water to each muffin cup-even if you are NOT making a full batch. Adding water to the empty muffins cups will help the pan not scorch in the oven.
• Crack one egg into each muffin cup, for as many eggs as you would like to poach.
• Bake for 11-13 minutes. 11 minutes, the yolk is very runny and egg whites are just about set; 13 minutes, the yolk is runny, but beginning to set around edges and egg whites are completely set.
• Using a spoon, gently scoop out the poached eggs at an angle, allowing the water to drain off the poached egg.
• Serve immediately.
