Over Hard Eggs (1 Serving)

Ingredients

Scale

Instructions

  1. Heat the oil over medium-low (almost low) heat in a small nonstick skillet. Toss in the butter. Swirl the butter around the pan after it begins to melt and bubble. Pour in the eggs, taking care not to rupture the yolks. Season with some salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Cook the eggs for about 2 to 3 minutes, or until the egg whites are mostly hard. At this time, the yolk should still have a liquid consistency. Poke the yolk with a spatula to break it if desired. As a result, it will spread out and cook faster.
  3. Flip the egg with a thin spatula and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, or until the yolk becomes firm and cooked through fully.
  4. Afterward, take the eggs out of the pan and serve as desired

Notes

  • It’s fine if you’re not an expert at cracking eggs. Before putting them in the pan, break them into a bowl. It’ll be easier this way to remove any eggshells, and it will also be easier to put the eggs in the pan without getting the yolks split up.
  • If you have a decent nonstick pan, less butter or oil can be used.
