over medium eggs is a tasty and nutritious breakfast option that offers a perfect balance of a runny yolk and a set white.
With a little practice, you can easily master the art of cooking over medium eggs and create a delicious breakfast in just a few minutes. So, grab your skillet, heat up your oil, and start cooking!
WHAT YOU’LL NEED
- Eggs – Any type of egg will work such as brown eggs, white eggs, organic eggs, etc.
- Oil – Feel free to use any type of oil or butter. You can also use a combination of both butter and oil for extra flavor.
- Salt and Pepper – You’ll need both salt and pepper to season the eggs. I like to season them after I plate them.
HOW TO COOK OVER-MEDIUM EGGS
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add oil or butter.
- Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes or until the egg whites start to set.
- Using a spatula, flip the eggs over gently and cook for 45 seconds. Season with salt and pepper and enjoy!
TOP TIP
Add a generous amount of oil or butter to your skillet so the eggs don’t stick. When I attended culinary school the first thing they taught us was how to cook eggs. I remember my instructor saying that your eggs should always slide if you move the pan around. If the eggs don’t slide around the skillet, you didn’t add enough oil or butter.
WHAT CAN I SERVE THIS WITH?
