1
Prepare the Egg
Take one large egg out of the refrigerator. Ensure that it is fresh and has no cracks.

2
Cooking the Egg
You can choose to boil, fry, or scramble the egg based on your preference.
3
For Boiled Egg
Place the egg in a pot and cover it with water. Bring the water to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, cover the pot and turn off the heat. Let it sit for 9-12 minutes depending on desired doneness. Afterward, place the egg in cold water to stop the cooking process.
4
For Fried Egg
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of oil or butter. Crack the egg into the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes for a sunny-side-up egg, or flip for over-easy or over-hard. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5
For Scrambled Egg
Crack the egg into a bowl and whisk it until the yolk and white are fully combined. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of oil or butter. Pour in the whisked egg and stir gently with a spatula until cooked through, usually about 2-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
