*Blessed* Turkish Eggs

I haven't posted a recipe in a while, but I can't stop making these breakfast eggs for literally all my meals. Adding intentions and blessings into your cooking (in my opinion) is the easiest way to incorporate magick into your daily like. As with anything you make, you can charge and bless the ingrediants with their metaphysical properties to make a more magickal meal. As you'll notice the ingredients listed below all have various properties, however the overall purpose of this dish is Healing, Energy and Protection.

Ingredients (and the properties I bless for)

2-3 Eggs (Rebirth and New Beginnings)

1 Cup of Greek yogurt (Healing and Balance)

Half of a Lemon (Clarity and Focus)

1-2 Cloves of Garlic (Protection and Purification)

10-12 Fresh Mint Leaves (Healing and Communication)

1 Tablespoon of Butter (Comfort and Healing)

Dash of Paprika (Joy and Protection)

Dash of Red Pepper Flakes (Strength and Confidence)

Dash of Cumin (Protection and Loyalty)

Bread with good crust (Abundance and Comfort)

Salt (Protection)

Pepper (Banishment)

Recipe

Start simmering a pot of water on the stove top, keep the temperature low to ensure it is more of a simmer then a boil.

While waiting for the water to boil, begin mincing garlic cloves, and mint leaves.

In a serving bowl, combine greek yogurt, juice from half a lemon, minced garlic cloves, mint leaves and some salt. Set to the side.

In simmering pot, add however many eggs youd like, and poach for about 3-4 minutes. (note: do not stir water while eggs are cooking, also do not let eggs overcook, the yolk should be runny).

While eggs are poaching, in small shallow pan, melt the butter. Add paprika, cumin, red pepper flakes and a good pinch of salt. Allow to cook until butter has changed to a darker red color.

Remove eggs from simmering water and add to the mint greek yogurt base. Pour butter sauce on top of everything.

If desired, cut and toast bread in some olive oil or the residue butter sauce in shallow pan.

Mix everything together and enjoy on top of bread!

Note: This recipe is adapted from a few different 'Turkish Eggs' recipes I've seen. You can definitely add other herbs like dill or basil to the greek yogurt base, if you want to include different properties from the ingredients, or focus on one specfic ideal for your day you can! Kitchen magick is all about intentions, set yours as you cook or even before. The photo used for this recpe is not mine, (I eat mine before remembering to take a picture) it is from Eva Koper who also has a recipe for Turkish Eggs on her site. Thank you for reading :)
