Method
step 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.
step 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.
