  3. 3

    Flip and add the butter, basting as it foams with Garlic for another two to three minutes.

  4. 4

    Move the Eggs to a plate and soften Smoked Paprika in the pan drippings, scraping the crusty bits loose.

    Deglaze with a splash of stock or water and reduce to a quick pan sauce, seasoning to taste.

  6. 6

    Rest the Eggs, then serve smothered in the pan sauce with the buttery drippings pooled over.

Chef's tip

Let the dish rest 5 minutes off the heat before serving so the flavours settle.
