Chile Oil Fried Eggs With Greens And Yogurt Recipes

Steps:

• Make the chili oil: Add the shallot, garlic, Sichuan peppercorns, bay leaves, cinnamon sticks, and peanut oil to a small saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat until the temperature reaches 215-225°F (101-107°C). Simmer for 30 minutes, until the aromatics are golden brown, but not burnt. The oil should be gently simmering, with tiny bubbles rising to the surface. If the oil gets too hot or the aromatics start to brown too quickly, reduce the heat to low.
• Add the Sichuan red chili flakes and Chinese five-spice powder to a medium, heatproof bowl. Place a fine-mesh strainer over the bowl. Carefully pour the hot oil through the strainer over the chili flakes and discard the aromatics left behind. Stir in the salt until dissolved. Let the chili oil cool completely before transferring to an airtight container. The chili oil will keep in the refrigerator for up to 6 months.
• Make the egg skillet: In a 10-inch cast iron skillet, heat 4 tablespoons of chili oil over medium heat until sizzling. Crack the eggs into the skillet and season with kosher salt. Cook for 2-3 minutes, depending on your preferred yolk doneness. Carefully tilt the skillet to distribute the chili oil around the eggs and use a spoon to baste the eggs with the oil.
• Remove the skillet from heat and top the eggs with the dill, scallions, and flaky sea salt. Serve with toasted bread.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Make the chile oil (or skip to Step 4 if using store-bought chile oil): Add red-pepper flakes to a heatproof container that can balance a fine-mesh sieve and comfortably hold at least 1 cup oil. (A 12- or 16-ounce Mason jar works well.) Set aside. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, toast cinnamon stick, star anise, cardamom (if using), fennel seeds and peppercorns, gently shaking the pan, until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add oil, garlic and ginger (if using), reduce the heat to low and allow the oil to come to a gentle simmer. Cook until the garlic is deeply golden brown and the ginger is tender, about 20 minutes. (The longer and more gently it cooks, the more flavorful the oil will be.)
• Carefully pour hot oil through sieve directly onto the red-pepper flakes, which will sizzle and fry in the hot oil. Discard strained spices. (You should have a little more than 1 cup oil.) Allow mixture to cool at least 1 hour or, for the best flavor, make it the night before.
• As chile oil simmers, prepare the seed mix: Heat oven to 425 degrees. On a rimmed sheet pan, lay out sesame seeds and pepitas in a single layer, transfer to the oven and toast until golden and fragrant, about 6 minutes. Let cool slightly, then mix in peanuts and garlic flakes. Set aside.
• Prepare the sautéed kale: In a large skillet over medium heat, warm oil until it shimmers. Add kale to the skillet, a couple of handfuls at a time, stirring to combine and adding more kale to the skillet as it wilts and space permits. (Kale will release liquid, but if you think it needs more oil, add it to the pan.) When the last batch has been added, season generously with salt. Add vinegar and about 1/2 tablespoon red-pepper flakes scooped from the chile oil, and stir to incorporate. You want some wilted bits and some crunchier drier bits. Set over low heat as you fry your eggs.
• Prepare the eggs: In another large nonstick skillet over medium-high, heat 1 tablespoon neutral oil. Working in batches, cook 1 to 2 eggs per person, adding oil as needed, until the yolk is a desired consistency, 2 to 3 minutes for sunny-side up.
• Plate the dish: Dollop about 1/4 cup yogurt onto the center of each plate, spread it in a circle, leaving space around the edge of the plate for the seeded oil and a divot in the middle for the greens. Spoon 3 to 4 tablespoons chile oil around the edge of the yogurt, and sprinkle seed mix over the oil. Divide warm greens on top of yogurt, and top with eggs. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Mix hot chili paste, vinegar, and honey in a small bowl. Place labneh in another small bowl; season with salt.
• Heat oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high. Crack eggs into pan and cook, shaking pan occasionally to keep eggs from sticking to each other, until edges are golden brown, about 2 minutes; season with salt. Carefully tilt skillet toward you so oil pools at front edge of pan. Spoon oil over egg whites, especially where they are still translucent, avoiding yolks, until set, about 1 minute.
• Divide labneh between tortillas and top with eggs, chile jam, and scallions.

Steps:

• Toss sprouts with lime juice in a small bowl; season with salt and pepper.
• Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium-high. When oil is hot, crack both eggs into skillet and season with salt and pepper. Oil should be bubbling around eggs from the start. Cook, rotating skillet occasionally, until whites are golden brown and crisp at the edges and set around the yolk (which should be runny), about 2 minutes. Add red pepper flakes to oil and remove pan from heat. Meanwhile, heat tortillas over a gas burner until just warmed and slightly charred in spots (or warm in the oven or a toaster oven).
• Mound sprouts on tortillas and top with fried eggs. Spoon chile oil from skillet around and drizzle with hot sauce. Crumble feta over, and serve with avocado slices, lime wedges, and more hot sauce.
