Fry Perfect Eggs
If you ever tried flipping an egg in a frying pan to get the perfect over easy or over medium egg, you probably broke a few yolks. There's an easier way to get perfect fried eggs every time you cook.
Instructions
1. Pour about five tablespoons of oil in a small skillet. Avoid non-sticks pans that can be damaged by metal utensils, cast iron works well.
2. Heat the oil on medium heat.
3. Crack the egg on a flat surface. Breaking an egg on a flat surface reduces the chance of breaking a yolk.
4. Slide the egg into the hot oil.
5. Using your metal spatula, gently push the hot oil over the top of the egg. The oil will be hot enough to cook the top of the egg if you keep spreading the oil around. The egg will cook just as well on top as if you had turned it over but, you won't risk breaking the yolk.
6. When your egg is done the way you like it, carefully slip the spatula under the egg and transfer it to a plate. Nobody has to know you made a perfect fried egg without flipping it once.
