Equipment

  • nonstick skillet
  • spatula

Ingredients

  • 1 Egg
  • Oil or Butter
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Start by heating your nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and adding about a tablespoon of oil to the pan. 
  • Once the oil is hot, crack your egg into the skillet and let it cook for about 1-2 minutes on one side. Then, use your spatula to gently flip the egg over and cook for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute, depending on how runny you like your yolks.
  • Season with salt and pepper, and enjoy!

Notes

  • The key to perfecting over easy eggs is getting the right heat temperature and using good quality oil. A temperature of around 375°F is perfect for cooking over easy eggs as it helps to set the whites while keeping the yolk runny.
  • It's essential to use the right spatula when making over easy eggs to avoid breaking the yolk. A silicone or rubber spatula is a good choice as it won't scratch the non-stick surface of your pan and will allow you to gently flip the egg without damaging it.
