Loaded Turkish Eggs

Herby Greek Yoghurt topped with Spicy Minced Lamb, 2 Soft Boiled Eggs, Feta and Chilli Butter.

A slight confession, but this was actually leftovers. I made Keema last night (check my stories if you wan the recipe) and after my gym session today, I wanted something filling and satisfying. So I threw this together.

I love coming up with ways to use up leftovers. Two different meals using up my minced lamb.

The longest part was cooking and peeling the eggs.

What you need to do:
2 eggs submerged in boiled water for 6 minutes.
Then placed in cold water for a minute before peeling

Herby Yoghurt
3-4 tbsp of Greek yoghurt
Handful of herbs - I used spring onion, dill & coriander
Seasoning: Salt, pepper, roasted cumin seeds

Mix it up and spread over a plate.

Lamb:
Bowl of left over spiced minced lamb (click here for the recipe)
Heat it up in the microwave for 2 minutes

Place on top of the yoghurt.
Then add your peeled eggs.

Crumble some feta over the plate.

Melt 1 tbsp of butter with 1 tbsp of chilli powder. Pour over the top of the eggs.

Garnish with some more of the herbs and red chilli peppers.

Watch in glee as you dig into that egg.
