Method
step 1
Put the feta, yogurt, lemon juice, a little seasoning and 2 tbsp of cold water into a small food processor and whizz until really smooth.
step 2
Heat the olive oil in a frying pan, pat the beetroot really well with kitchen paper to dry, then cook in the pan for 2-3 minutes on each side or until lightly caramelised.
step 3
Crack each egg into a teacup or ramekin, then gently tip into a large pan of simmering lightly salted water, and cook for 2 minutes or until the white is just set, then remove with a slotted spoon.
step 4
Put a piece of toast onto each plate, spread with some of the whipped feta, spoon over the beetroot wedges, top with a poached egg, then sprinkle with the dukkah and parsley.
