Ingredients

200 g eggs
240 g yogurt
4 g garlic
15 g vinegar
1000 ml water
28 g butter
3 g paprika
2 g salt

Instructions

Grate the garlic and stir it into the yogurt with a pinch of the salt; leave it on the counter to lose its chill.
Bring the water to a boil in a wide pot, lower it to a gentle simmer and add the vinegar.
Crack each egg into a small cup first. Swirl the water gently and slide the eggs in one by one; poach for 3-4 minutes until the whites are set and the yolks still runny.
Meanwhile melt the butter in a small pan until foaming, take it off the heat and stir in the paprika.
Spread the garlic yogurt over two plates. Lift the eggs out with a slotted spoon, drain well and set them on the yogurt; sprinkle with the rest of the salt, spoon over the paprika butter and serve immediately.
