How to Fry an Egg
Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients
To fry an egg, you'll need the following ingredients:
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon of butter or oil
- Salt and pepper (optional)
Step 2: Heat the Pan
Place a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add the butter or oil. Let it melt and heat up until it's hot.
Step 3: Crack the Egg
Gently crack the egg into the pan. Be careful not to break the yolk.
Step 4: Cook the Egg
Let the egg cook for a few minutes until the whites are set. If you prefer your egg yolk fully cooked, cover the pan with a lid to steam the top.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Once the egg is cooked to your liking, use a spatula to carefully remove it from the pan. Serve with salt and pepper to taste.
Enjoy your perfectly fried egg!
