Step 1

Heat a pan over medium low heat. You can use a cast iron griddle or non stick pan. If you have a wide pan, you can make more than one eggs at a time. I just used my small non stick pan to make one egg at a time.

Step 2

Add the oil/butter to the pan.

Step 3

After about 10 seconds, crack the egg.

Step 4

Hold the cracked eggs about 2 inches from the hot pan and break it open. If you are scared to break it directly onto the hot pan, break the eggs in a small bowl and pour it gently into the pan. If using a wider pan, add 2-3 eggs at a time leaving space between them and cook simultaneously.

Step 5

Sprinkle a pinch of salt and pepper on top of the eggs. You can add this while serving too.

Step 6

Cook until the egg whites are fully set. It takes about 3 minutes. The yolks should be runny. You can put a lid to speed up the process.

Step 7

Remove it carefully on to a serving plate.
