Broccollini Cakes with Poached Eggs and Spiced Yogurt

Method

  1. Boil the broccoli in a pan of boiling water for 5-6 minutes until soft. Drain and cool under the cold tap. Drain again thoroughly.
  2. Chuck the broccoli and spring onion into a food processor and blitz to break down. Add the cannellini beans, lemon zest, cumin and a good pinch of salt. Blend together into a smooth mixture. A little texture is lovely if you fancy it. Divide into two and form each portion into patties about 1 ½ cm thick.
  3. Brush the oil around a large non-stick frying pan and heat over a medium-high heat. Add the patties and brush the top with the excess oil from the brush. Cook for 2-3 minutes a side or until a little golden and heated through.
  4. Meanwhile, poach the eggs in a pan of boiling water until the whites are set.
  5. Mix the yogurt together with the harissa and a pinch of salt.
  6. To serve, divide the patties between two serving plates. Dollop over the yogurt and top each with an egg. Season with salt and chilli flakes of using and serve immediately.
