Egg Half Fry – Quick & Delicious Breakfast Recipe
Egg Half Fry is a popular breakfast recipe known for its simplicity and delicious taste. With a perfectly cooked white and a runny yolk, it’s a favorite among many. Here’s how you can make this classic dish at home in just a few minutes.
🧾 Ingredients
- Egg: 1 (fresh and at room temperature)
- Oil or Butter: ½ tablespoon
- Salt: to taste
- Black Pepper: to taste
👩🍳 Preparation
1. Heat the Pan
- Place a non-stick pan over medium heat.
- Add the oil or butter to the pan.
- Allow the oil or butter to heat up. You can test the heat by adding a drop of water; if it sizzles, the pan is ready.
2. Crack the Egg
- Carefully crack the egg into a small bowl to avoid any shell fragments.
- Gently slide the egg from the bowl into the hot pan.
3. Cook the Egg
- Reduce the heat to low.
- Let the egg cook undisturbed until the egg white is fully set and opaque. The yolk should remain runny and bright yellow.
- This process typically takes about 2–3 minutes.
4. Season and Serve
- Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the egg to taste.
- Carefully slide the egg onto a plate.
- Serve immediately with toasted bread, parathas, or as desired.
💡 Tips for the Perfect Egg Half Fry
- Fresh Eggs: Use fresh eggs for the best texture and taste.
- Low Heat: Cooking on low heat ensures the egg white sets properly without overcooking the yolk.
- Non-Stick Pan: A non-stick pan helps in easy flipping and prevents the egg from sticking.
- Covering the Pan: Covering the pan with a lid while cooking can help cook the top of the egg without flipping.
Enjoy your Egg Half Fry as a quick and satisfying meal to start your day!
