Find Out How To Make Eggs Over Easy The Right Way

By Alex Sheen


Eggs over easy is a quick, simple dish enjoyed the world over. The short preparation time is a major reason these eggs are so popular. Breakfast is the traditional time of day that this type of eggs is enjoyed, but they can also be a great lunchtime choice. Combined with sausage, bacon or bread, a filling lunch takes mere minutes. Each person may have a preferred method in preparing the perfect egg, but there is a basic similarity that does not change.


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.

Eggs over easy will generally need some medium low range of fire in order not to burn. The next step would be to crack some eggs into a bowl and to ensure that the yolks of the eggs are not broken up. After cracking the eggs into the bowl, they may then be added to the frying pan.

The meal cook should remember not to add the bowl content to the frying pan all at once to avoid breaking the yolks of the eggs in the bowl. The cook may add the content of the bowl a little at a time until all of the content are in the frying pan. The cook will then need to wait for about two minutes for the eggs to fry.

The hotter the pan is, the quicker the egg will begin to solidify. Personal preference will dictate how firm the egg white and egg yolk should be. At the very least, the egg needs to be firm enough to withstand the turning over stage without falling to pieces.

Flipping the egg is going to be the real challenge in this entire effort given that this part of the process is when people are most likely to break the yolk. It is best to do this by getting a large-sized spatula and using this to flip the egg. This should be done carefully and slowly or else the yolk will no longer be full.

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.

The mystery has now been taken out of this simple egg preparation technique. Approximately ten minutes of effort will produce any number of well-prepared eggs. Now that you know how to make eggs over easy, add some toast and a nice cup of juice to complete a quick breakfast or lunch.
