Soft boiled eggs and wild garlic Ricotta

Ingredients
100g Ricotta
200g Greek yoghurt
small handful of wild garlic, finely chopped
½ teaspoon of za’atar
½ teaspoon of sumac
sea salt
black pepper
4 eggs
For the butter:
80g butter
1Â tbsp of olive oil
½ tsp mild chili powder
½ tsp paprika
4-5 small leaves of wild garlic, finely chopped
sea salt

Method
Whip together the Ricotta, yoghurt, wild garlic, za’atar, sumac, sea salt and black pepper in a bowl and set aside. If it is too stiff, stir in a little good quality olive oil.
Boil the eggs until soft or jammy but not too soft to peel. Alternatively, you could of course poach them.
In a small pan, melt the butter over a medium-high heat and cook until it starts to get foamy and turn brown.
Add the olive oil, spices and half the wild garlic and cook for a further minute. Take off the heat and set aside.
Assemble by dividing the Ricotta/yoghurt mixture between two bowls, cut the eggs in half, season and place on top and finally drizzle the brown butter on top.
Garnish with the reserved wild garlic, a pinch of za’atar, sumac and black pepper.
