1. In a small bowl combine the yoghurt, minced garlic and a large pinch of sea salt flakes then set aside.

2. Fill a large pot with water half way and bring to a simmer, add the tbsp of vinegar to the water. Crack one egg gently into a fine mesh over a bowl to get rid of any extra egg white that may disrupt the shape of the egg, carefully tip the egg into the pot turning the heat down completely so there is no movement in the water. Repeat with the second egg. Leave eggs to cook no more than 3-4 minutes then carefully remove using a slotted spoon and transfer to a plate covered with some kitchen paper.

3. In a small saucepan heat the olive oil and butter. Add in the Aleppo pepper and stir over medium heat for about 1-2 minutes. Remove from the heat.

4. Divide the garlic yoghurt between two shallow bowls and place an egg in the centre of each. Pour the Aleppo pepper sauce over each, finally top with some fresh Dill fonds and another large pinch of sea salt flakes. Serve with some crusty toasted sourdough bread.
