• 150 g Swiss chard
• Chili flakes to taste
• 5 ml Extra virgin olive oil

Method

1. Peel the lupini beans by squeezing them out of their skins and set them aside.
2. Wash the swiss chard and chop it into bite-sized pieces.
3. Heat the olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat, then add the chard and a splash of water; cover and cook for 5 minutes.
4. Stir the lupini beans and chili flakes into the pan with the chard and sauté for another 3-4 minutes until flavorful.
5. Bring a small pot of water to a gentle simmer (do not boil hard) and add a drop of vinegar if available.
6. Carefully crack each egg into the water and cook for 3 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks are still soft.
7. Lift the eggs with a slotted spoon and serve them over the bed of spicy lupini and greens.

Tips

• Peeling the lupini reduces the sodium content and makes the texture much more pleasant for a sauté.
• If poaching eggs feels tricky, you can achieve a similar result with soft-boiled eggs cooked for 6 minutes.
