How To Cooking An Egg?

[monir92778888]

There are many ways to cook an egg, but one of the simplest and most versatile methods is to fry it. Here are the steps:

Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat.

Add a small amount of oil or butter to the pan and let it melt.

Crack the egg into a small bowl or ramekin, being careful not to break the yolk.

Once the pan is hot, gently pour the egg into the pan.

Cook the egg for 2-3 minutes, until the whites are set but the yolk is still runny.

Using a spatula, carefully flip the egg over and cook for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute, depending on how well-done you like your yolk.

Use the spatula to remove the egg from the pan and transfer it to a plate.

Season with salt and pepper, and enjoy!

Note: You can also cook an egg in many other ways, such as boiling, poaching, scrambling, or baking, depending on your preferences and the recipe you're using.

A far more interesting debate than it appeared to be at first glance.

The next time I cook someone a fried egg, I will be asking them if they would like it rare or well done.

douglas 16.28 What do I need to get over? I'm just pointing out there's an error within the instructions provided, or what I see to be an error in the cooking method.

It was a joke, Nicebloke. 'Ova' instead of over.

I'm a bit slow then it appears today, whats the joke? :o)

i struggle to see how frying an egg is "versatile". if you fry an egg, you get a fried egg every time.

Thanks for having my back in the never ending battle with the sparky ones, Tilly.
The yolk's on him.

[Tilly2]

You are welcome, Douglas. It made me smile.;-)

The instructions say to be careful not to break the yolk.
What should I do if I'm not careful and the yolk breaks?

[Tilly2]

Eat it anyway, Barsel.

[douglas9401]

You may get the sac.

I've never fried an egg or poached or scrambled one. I boil mine, last time was about twenty years ago.

Thank you Tilly for your valuable advice, I don't know why I didn't think of that. :-))
Perhaps monir92778888 should have mentioned this in the instructions.
Hope we are going to get the recipe for toast to put said eggs on.

If you cook it until the yolk is dried out and set, then, IMO, you are getting it all wrong. Yolk should be runny to maximise taste. Similarly bacon should not be cooked until hard. It too changes flavour. Crispy is okish, but a wasted opportunity as it tastes nothing like as good as when medium/rare.
