 Basic Fried Eggs Recipe


Making basic fried eggs is a simple and quick process that results in a delicious breakfast or meal component. Here's a straightforward recipe to make perfect fried eggs:


Ingredients:

  • Eggs (as many as desired)
  • Butter or cooking oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions:

  1. Heat the Pan:

    • Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat.
  2. Add Butter or Oil:

    • Once the pan is heated, add a small amount of butter or cooking oil to the pan. Use enough to coat the bottom of the pan and prevent the eggs from sticking.
  3. Crack the Eggs:

    • Carefully crack the eggs one at a time into a small bowl or directly into the pan. Crack each egg close to the surface of the pan to prevent the yolk from breaking.
  4. Cook the Eggs:

    • Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed until the whites are set and the edges start to turn golden brown. For sunny-side-up eggs, cook them without flipping. For over-easy or over-medium eggs, gently flip the eggs with a spatula once the whites are set and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to desired doneness.
  5. Season with Salt and Pepper:

    • Season the eggs with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add additional seasonings such as herbs or spices if desired.
  6. Serve:

    • Once the eggs are cooked to your liking, remove them from the pan and transfer them to a plate.
    • Serve the fried eggs immediately while they're hot.

Tips:

  • Egg Freshness: Fresh eggs will have firmer whites and taller yolks, which are less likely to break when cracked.
  • Pan Temperature: Make sure the pan is preheated before adding the eggs to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
  • Butter vs. Oil: Butter adds flavor to the eggs, while oil has a higher smoke point and may be preferable for high-heat cooking.
  • Over-Easy vs. Over-Medium: For over-easy eggs, cook them just until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny. For over-medium eggs, cook them until the yolks are slightly set but still creamy.
  • Serve Immediately: Fried eggs are best served hot and fresh, so enjoy them immediately after cooking.

With these simple steps, you can make perfect fried eggs every time!
