Cooking over easy eggs is a culinary technique that results in a fried egg with a runny yolk and a cooked white. It is a popular breakfast item and can also be used in other dishes, such as sandwiches and salads. Over easy eggs are relatively easy to make, but there are a few key steps to follow to ensure success.
The first step is to heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once the skillet is hot, add a pat of butter or a drizzle of olive oil. Then, crack an egg into the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the white is set and the yolk is still runny. Use a spatula to gently flip the egg and cook for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until the yolk is cooked to your desired doneness.
