Cooking an Over-Easy Egg Simply Explained
Mastering the Perfect Fried Egg: A Step-by-Step Guide
Frying an egg may seem daunting for some, but with a little practice and the right techniques, anyone can achieve a perfectly cooked fried egg. Here's a simple guide to help you master this breakfast staple.
Cooking a Fried Egg
- Start by heating a skillet to medium-high heat with butter, oil, or a combination of both. A non-stick skillet works best, but use what you like.
- Crack the egg into a cup first rather than cracking directly into the pan. This will help create a round egg and prevent any shells from getting into the pan.
- Pour the egg into the heated skillet.
- Loosen the edges of the cracked egg with a spatula.
- Once the whites begin to set, using a spoon, pour the liquid over the egg white until they are set.
- Flip and cook another minute (depending on how firm you like your yolk). For Egg Over Firm, cook the egg for two-three minutes. You can lightly touch the yolk to check the firmness.
- Serve your perfectly fried egg with a potato hash or use it in a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich.
Variations
For Eggs Sunny Side Up, skip steps 4 - 5. Take it out of the pan once the whites are white (no longer clear).
Tips
- Fresh eggs are best for frying eggs.
- Don't let the pan get too hot or it will result in inconsistent cooking. The eggs should slightly sizzle when they hit the pan.
- The fried egg is not described as being overcooked or undercooked in this guide. Adjust the cooking time according to your preference.
Origins
Unfortunately, the origin of the specific roasted egg recipe cannot be determined from the available search results. None of them mention who developed a particular recipe for roasted egg.
Regardless of its origins, mastering the fried egg is a skill that is both practical and satisfying. So, give it a try and enjoy your perfectly cooked fried egg!
