** For the butters **
small handful PiùSapore® coriander
small handful PiùSapore® dill
small handful PiùSapore® mint, plus some extra whole leaves to serve, if you like
1 green chilli, roughly chopped, seeds removed if you don't want it too spicy
50g green olives, chopped

2 tsp paprika
½ tsp Aleppo chilli pepper flakes (pul biber), plus extra to serve
½ lemon, zested
flatbreads or simit (Turkish sesame breads, to serve (see recipe below)
.
** Method **
1 - First, make the flavoured butters. Put the PiùSapore® herbs, chilli and olives in a small food processor and blitz until finely chopped. Alternatively, chop by hand or bash using a pestle and mortar. Add 100g butter and mix well. In another bowl, mash the remaining 100g butter with the paprika, chilli flakes and lemon zest. Wrap the butters and chill until you need them. Can be made up to five days ahead.
2 - Season the yogurt and add the garlic. Chill for at least 1 hr, or up to a day to infuse.
3 - Heat a large pan of water until nearly boiling, and add the vinegar. Crack an egg into a small dish and carefully drop it into the water, then do the same with two more eggs, if you have space in the pan. Poach the eggs for 2-3 mins until the whites are set and the yolks still runny. You can check this by gently lifting one of the eggs out of the water with a slotted spoon – press the whites close to where the yolk is, they should feel firm. Now gently press the yolk (being careful not to burst it), it should still feel soft. Transfer to a plate lined with kitchen paper and cook the rest of the eggs.
4 - Heat each of the butters in a separate pan (or in the microwave) until melted. Don’t overheat or the herbs will lose their vibrancy.
5 - Remove the garlic clove from the yogurt, then divide the yogurt between four plates or shallow bowls, making a nest shape for the eggs to sit in the middle. Return all the eggs to the hot water for 20-30 secs to make sure they’re warm. Drain well, then place two on each plate of yogurt. Drizzle over either of the butters, or a little of each, scatter with some herbs and a little more Aleppo pepper, if you like. Serve with bread for scooping.
