Description

Imagine starting your day with a dish that's both comforting and invigorating: a creamy, tangy base of full-fat Greek yogurt, vibrant greens sautéed to tender perfection, and a flawlessly fried egg boasting irresistibly crispy edges. This is more than just breakfast; it's a symphony of textures and flavors designed to awaken your senses. The foundation of this delightful dish is the Greek yogurt.

Its cool, creamy texture provides a refreshing contrast to the warm elements that follow. The slight tang of the yogurt cuts through the richness of the other ingredients, creating a balanced and harmonious taste experience. Look for a thick, full-fat variety to achieve the desired creaminess and satisfying mouthfeel.

Next comes the kale, gently sautéed in olive oil until it wilts and softens. The olive oil imparts a subtle fruity note, enhancing the natural earthiness of the greens. Be mindful not to overcook the kale; it should retain a slight bite and a vibrant green color.

A sprinkle of salt is all it needs to bring out its inherent flavors. The star of the show is undoubtedly the sunny-side-up egg. Cooked to perfection, the egg white should be fully set, while the yolk remains gloriously runny.

The crispy edges of the egg add a delightful textural contrast to the soft yolk and creamy yogurt. As you cut into the egg, the golden yolk cascades over the other ingredients, creating a luscious sauce that ties everything together. Finally, a drizzle of browned butter elevates this dish to new heights.

The nutty, caramelized flavor of the browned butter adds a touch of decadence and complexity. Its rich aroma fills the air, enticing you to savor every bite. This dish is incredibly versatile and can be adapted to your personal preferences.

Feel free to experiment with different types of greens, such as spinach or chard. You can also add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat or a squeeze of lemon juice for added brightness. Whether you're looking for a quick and easy weekday breakfast or a satisfying weekend brunch, this creamy yogurt bowl with sautéed greens and a crispy egg is sure to please.

It's a celebration of simple ingredients transformed into something truly special.

    Coarse Kosher Salt

    0.13 tsp
    6.
    Butter
    Butter
    2 tablespoon

Instructions

    1.
    Preheat a small nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add in ½ tbsp of the olive oil and swirl to coat. Add the kale, turn the heat to low, and cook, stirring constantly, until wilted, about 1-2 minutes. Add a pinch of salt to the kale. Transfer the kale to a warm plate.
    2.
    Return the same pan (which should still be hot) to medium-high heat and add the remaining ½ tbsp olive oil and swirl to coat. Crack in the two eggs and sprinkle them with ⅛ tsp kosher salt. Do not disturb them and allow them to form crispy, crunchy edges. This should take about 1-2 minutes. Be sure to turn the heat down to medium.
    3.
    You will also need to make the browned butter. To do this, add the butter to a small saucepan and cook over medium heat until the butter turns brown. Keep a close eye on it as it will only take a few minutes to turn brown. Be sure to swirl the pan occasionally. Set it aside in a bowl. If you leave it in the saucepan it will continue to cook/brown. In the meantime, divide the yogurt between two plates and spread it evenly.
    4.
    Top the yogurt with half of the kale. Then top the kale with one crispy egg apiece.
    5.
    Drizzle the salted browned butter over the plates. Serve immediately! Add chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
