A Simple Recipe On How To Make Eggs Over Easy

By Alex Sheen


One of the most common meals in the world is eggs over easy. A lot of people will typically take it as a meal at breakfast or may choose to eat it as lunch with other foods like bacon, bread or sausages. Anyone can use the following recipe to know how to make eggs over easy.

The simplest method, when preparing this dish, is to use a clean pan for frying and use some oil. A standard choice of oil would be canola oil, but many types of oil would suffice. With any oil of choice, very lightly cover the entire bottom of the pan. The egg should not be swimming in oil. The oil serves only as a means of eliminating the possibility of the egg sticking to the pan.

Keep the heat below the pan at a medium level to avoid burning the eggs while cooking. Crack the egg, being careful to keep the yolk intact, and gently pour into the pan. Add as many eggs as necessary in relation to the number of people being served.

Take care when adding the eggs to the pan to make sure there will be room to flip the eggs over half-way through the cooking process. Too many eggs in the pan will result in the eggs sticking together after turning. Cooking the first side will take about two minutes.

After the two minutes period, the white of the eggs should have become more solidified as a result of the heat from the frying pan. How solid the whites of the eggs will be would depend on how high or low the heat at the bottom of the pan is. The eggs' whites will usually solidify much more quickly if the heat is high than if it is low.

The hardest part with eggs over easy is with the flipping of the eggs in the pan, since this is usually where most people will generally break up their eggs' yolks. The best way to flip the eggs in the pan will be with the use of a big spatula. This should be done very slowly and carefully too in order to avoid breaking the yolks of the eggs.

The final step, after turning the eggs, is to lower the heat if necessary. This part of the process will determine whether the eggs will have a soft, or a firm, center. Each person has a different preference. Keep a close eye on the texture of the yolk, and remove the pan from the heat when the preferred consistency is reached. Transfer the eggs to a platter and enjoy.

These are the basic steps on how to make eggs over easy, they should generally not take more than fifteen minutes of most people time. The meal can be served with some coffee or orange juice and some bread too as a simple breakfast meal.
