A delicious high-protein and gut-loving breakfast that will keep you full and satisfied! This recipe is a twist on the Turkish-inspired dish featuring poached eggs nestled on a bed of garlicky dill-infused labneh, drizzled with a warm, spiced butter infused with chili, cumin, and red pepper flakes. The labneh instead of Greek yogurt offers a thicker and creamier bed for your eggs. It is sure to impress!

Traditionally, these Turkish eggs are made with aleppo pepper, but I used gochugaru (Korean red pepper flakes) and it was just as good! Substitute for paprika if you don't have either on hand :)

Soo good. Made it with homemade labneh so extra tasty. Will definitely make this again and change nothing!

Made this with some ramen-style eggs, thinned it out with a bit of yoghurt. Had it for breakfast and it was such a good way to start the day!

Dill-icious! The eggs are complimented perfectly by the labneh with dill. The butter on top is the perfect accompaniment, and is perfect for dipping up with bread. I substituted the red pepper flakes for smoked paprika as it was what I had in the cupboard and it worked really well.
