Fried Eggs Recipe

Prep/Total Time: 10 min.

Yield: 2 Servings

5 5 10

Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter
2 eggs

Directions

In a 7- or 8-in. skillet or omelet pan, melt butter over medium heat. Break eggs, one at a time, into a custard cup or saucer, then gently slide into the pan. Immediately reduce heat to low. Cook slowly until the whites are completely set and the yolks begin to thicken.
For eggs sunny-side up, cover the pan and cook until the yolk thickens, but are not hard. For basted eggs, spoon butter in pan over eggs while cooking. For over-easy eggs, carefully turn the eggs to cook both sides. Yield: 2 servings.

We have used each of these methods for years! I use virgin olive oil with garlic or peppers instead of butter. Also if you want the whites to be crisby, leave full heat on for a minute or so.
