Instructions
 

Blister the Tomatoes
  1. Toss 1 cup cherry tomatoes on the vine with 2 tsp olive oil and a pinch of salt.
    Then cook using one of these three methods:
    Pan-fry (fastest, about 6 minutes). Heat the tomatoes in a small nonstick skillet over medium-high. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally, until the skins blister and a few burst.
    Air fryer (about 8 minutes). Air fry at 380°F for 8 to 9 minutes, until softened and charred at the edges.
    Oven (about 18 minutes, best for batch cooking). Roast at 400°F for 15 to 18 minutes, until slumped and jammy.

Cook Your Eggs
  1. Soft-boiled, jammy (7 minutes). Bring a small pot of water to a gentle boil. Lower 4 large eggs in with a slotted spoon and set a timer for exactly 7 minutes. Transfer to an ice bath for 1 minute, then peel and slice in half. Sprinkle the cut sides with a pinch of salt.
    Soft-scrambled (about 2 minutes). Whisk 4 large eggs with a pinch of salt. Melt 1 tsp salted butter in a small nonstick skillet over medium-low heat, pour in the eggs, and push them gently with a silicone spatula for about 2 minutes, until soft and just set. Pull them off the heat right before they look fully done.

  2. Air fry the eggs alongside the tomatoes. If you're going the soft-boiled route, you can drop your eggs straight into the air fryer basket with the tomatoes for 8 to 9 minutes.
    Pull the eggs out at the same time as the tomatoes, transfer them to an ice bath for 1 minute, then peel and slice. The yolks come out jammy and the whites just set.
Build Your Bowl
  1. Divide 1½ cup thick plain greek yogurt between two wide shallow bowls and spread it into a swoop. Arrange the warm blistered tomatoes, the eggs, and diced cucumber (in their own sections around the yogurt.

  2. Add a clove of grated garlic, pinch of salt, and drizzle of olive oil to your yogurt for an extra flavorful base.
Top & Serve
  1. Drizzle with 2 tsp chili crisp or hot honey, then sprinkle on everything bagel seasoning and a scatter of fresh herbs. Serve with 2 slices sourdough bread (toasted) on the side.

Notes

  • Meal prep. Pre-boil your eggs and roast a full sheet pan of cherry tomatoes on the weekend. Assemble each day just before enjoying.
  • Use thick yogurt. A strained, thick greek yogurt (or labneh) holds its shape and stays creamy against the warm eggs and tomatoes. Thin yogurt waters down the bowl.
  • Make it spicier. Hot honey adds a sweet-heat note, or add a spoonful of chili crisp under the eggs.
  • Make it gluten-free. Swap the sourdough for your favorite gluten-free bread, or skip the toast for a lower-carb bowl.
