1. 1

   In a bowl, mix room-temperature Greek yogurt with finely grated garlic and a pinch of salt; divide between two shallow bowls.

3. 3

   Melt butter in a small pan over medium heat; stir in chilli flakes and smoked paprika until foaming and fragrant, about 1 minute.

   Lift poached eggs with a slotted spoon, drain briefly, and place two gently over each portion of yogurt.
