Olia Hercules’ traditional Ukrainian breakfast eggs recipe – made with chicken, kale and shallots – is a hearty treat that will set you up for the day.
Olia says: “Ukrainians don’t do breakfast by halves. Anything you fancy or that’s in season can go with these eggs, but the ingredient that makes this dish quintessentially Ukrainian is good quality lardo (pork fat). I know a lot of people are into clean eating these days, but we Ukrainians love our lardo. It envelops everything with the most wonderful porky flavour – a flavour we can’t live without”

Lardo is an Italian cured pork fat from the back of the animal. It’s available from Italian delis and online, but if you can’t find any, duck fat or beef dripping work too.
