Spicy Crispy Yolk Toast 🍳 These were inspired by Turkish Eggs (çilbir) that from what I hear aren’t common in Turkey… what do you think? either way, they were my inspo ❤️ and of course my crispy yolks… can’t get enough of those! These are also a variation of my crispy yolk toast, but this is the spicy edition!

Why You’ll Love Spicy Crispy Yolk Toast

Crispy yolks are a main character and my love letter to yolks. They are sooo good and runny which is such a nice surprise. These are so flavorful, and you won’t be able to get enough! They are spicy and delicious.

How To Prepare Spicy Crispy Yolk Toast

🧄 First, mix together the labneh, lemon, salt/pepper and grated garlic.

🧈 Secondly, melt some butter in a pan, add the olive oil, sumac, paprika, chipotle, honey, salt/pepper and crushed red peppers.

🍳 Then, heat up some avocado oil, tilt the pan and carefully fry the yolks for 15 seconds until golden. Make sure to baste the yolks with a spoon.

🍞 Lastly, toast the bread, spread the yogurt, add some za’atar, fresh dill, the spicy butter and fried yolk.

Substitutions and Variations

  1. Herbs and spices are always very easy to swap for your favorites or which ever ones you have on hand.
  2. You can use chili crisp instead of salsa macha.
  3. You can use any bread of your choice instead of ciabatta.

Chef Nadia’s Tip

Careful is the name of the game when handling the yolks.
