Ingredients

4 serv.
  • cashews75g g
  • hot vegetable stock350ml ml
  • leftover coconut, curry leaf & turmeric saucy lentils (see step 1)700g g
  • spinach260g g
  • eggs8
  • crusty bread or toasted flatbreads

    to serve

  • olive oil2 tbsp tbsp
  • dukkah1 tbsp tbsp
  • chilli flakes½ tsp tsp
  • garlic cloves2

    thinly sliced

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Tip the cashews and stock into a blender and set aside to soak for 15 mins. Pour in the lentils and spinach and blend until vibrant, green and smooth. Pour into a frying pan and season to taste. Set over a medium heat. Once the sauce is gently bubbling, use the back of a spoon to create spaces for cracking the eggs into. Reduce the heat and cook over a low heat for 5 mins, then cover with a lid. Cook for 3-5 mins. The tops of the eggs will be cloudy, but they should still have a slight jiggle and the yolks should be runny.

  2. 2

    Meanwhile, for the drizzle, heat the oil in a small frying pan over a medium-high heat and tip in the dukkah, chilli flakes and garlic. Cook for 4-5 mins until golden and fragrant. Spoon over the eggs, then serve with crusty bread or toasted flatbreads.
