    Brunch Special

    brunch in our house is usually one of a few ‘go-to’ favorites. iron skillet pancake souffle with fruit & honey……omelettes ( * with strawberry jam )…….or this moroccan diddy. it’s a classic recipe that we took from saveur magazine years ago. so last sunday - as we were settling in with the NYTimes with nowhere to go - i decided to make moroccan brunch special.

    1.  thick garlic yogurt.  whole milk yogurt - strained for at least an hour ( strainer lined with coffee filter).  into it press a couple of cloves of garlic. leave out at room temp.

    2.  crispy fried sage leaves.

    3.  flour tortillas. 

           with all that prepped - this part needs to be done quickly.

    3.  fried eggs - over easy or sunny side up. flip onto yogurt.

    4.  in a fry pan - heat EVO oil ( 1/4 c. ) and a bit of butter ( 2 T ) . when foaming  - add 1/2 tsp each of hot paprika & smoked paprika. swirl pan to incorporate and immediately pour over eggs. add sea salt and garnish with fried sage. serve up warm tortillas.

          this dish is always a treat ! ( next brunch special is on emmett…………pancake souffle please ).
