Çılbır-Inspired Eggs En Cocotte — baked, custardy eggs best enjoyed with some crusty bread for dipping! I saw make eggs en cocotte and was very inspired!! I used the Turkish egg dish Çılbır as the inspiration for mine and made it yogurt based instead of cream based. I used my leftover garlic bread (recipe posted a few videos back!) to dip in, and it was divine!! Full recipe just went out on my newsletter “good mood food,” but you can also access it through the link in my bio!!

Ingredients

2 servings

⅔ cupgreek yogurt

2 Tbspbutter

½ tsppaprika

½ tspaleppo pepper

Instructions

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Bring about 4 cups of water to a boil. Grease your ramekin or cocotte with butter or olive oil.

Step 2

2. Add the Greek yogurt, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt to your ramekin/cocotte. Mix together and smooth everything down so the yogurt sits evenly at the bottom of the dish. Crack the eggs into the ramekin, and sprinkle with a little more salt and black pepper.

Step 3

2. Cover ramekins/cocttes and place into a baking dish at least a few inches deep. Pour the boiling water into the baking dish so it comes up at least halfway up the ramekins. Place in the oven and cook for 15-25 minutes, depending on how cooked you want the eggs/your oven. I ended up around 22 minutes for pretty runny eggs. Eggs should look set, but still have some jiggle.

Step 4

3. Towards the end of your eggs baking, heat up 2 tbsp butter on medium-low heat in a small saucepan and whisk in paprika and aleppo pepper. When eggs are done baking, remove the ramekins/cocotte from the baking dish and remove the lids. Spoon on the butter mixture, and top with fresh chives and dill and some more black pepper.
