A fried egg makes an excellent fast and flavorful breakfast choice that also enhances other dishes. Any cook who learns how to fry eggs according to their desired yolk level becomes better at home cooking. Using new eggs in combination with non-stick pans and the selected cooking technique according to individual preferences creates successful fried eggs.
Start by warming a skillet that can be nonstick or properly seasoned to medium-low temperatures. Add one teaspoon of butter or oil into the pan while it heats until the liquid covers the surface. Before you pour your egg into the hot pan use a small bowl which prevents shell pieces from appearing. Flesh out the cooking process for sunny side up by keeping the egg in the pan without moving it until both the yolk stays runny while the white solidifies during the 2 to 3 minute cook time. The flipping process for over easy eggs should be done carefully followed by 30 seconds of pan cooking. Switching to an over medium takes an estimated minute after flipping but you need two minutes or longer to cook over hard until the yolk reaches full doneness.
High cooking heat will create unbalanced discoloration and uneven cooking of the egg. A constant low heat setting enables complete egg white cooking without damaging the yolk consistency. Perish the egg with salt and black pepper based on your personal preference.
The versatile appeal of fried eggs enables them to pair well with various dishes including toast, rice, vegetables and burger toppings and noodles. Practicing fried eggs for a short period will equip you to create eggs with precisely the perfect combination of crispy edges and soft or completely firm internal textures.
