Ingredients

(Serves 1)

• 2 large eggs
• 1 tablespoon butter or oil (olive, vegetable, or avocado oil)
• Salt, to taste
• Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

---

Instructions

1. Heat the Pan

• Place a non-stick skillet over low to medium-low heat.
• Add the butter or oil and let it melt and spread evenly, but do not let it brown.

2. Crack the Eggs

• Crack the eggs one at a time into a small bowl (to ensure no shells or broken yolks).
• Gently slide the eggs into the pan, keeping the yolks intact.

3. Cook the Eggs

• Cook the eggs over low heat until the whites are fully set and opaque, about 2-3 minutes.
• If the edges start to brown before the whites are fully cooked, reduce the heat further.

4. Optional: Cover the Pan

• For slightly firmer whites on top while keeping the yolks runny, cover the pan with a lid for 30 seconds to 1 minute.

5. Season and Serve

• Sprinkle with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Serve immediately with toast, avocado slices, or as part of a breakfast platter.

Tips

• Avoid Overheating: Low and gentle heat is essential for evenly cooked whites and a runny yolk.
• Non-Stick Pan: Use a good-quality non-stick skillet to ensure the eggs slide out easily.
• Presentation: For a perfect look, avoid moving the eggs around in the pan during cooking.

Enjoy your sunny-side-up eggs with their golden, cheerful yolks and tender whites! 🍳✨
