Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all the ingredients: 2 eggs, salt, black pepper, and butter or oil.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Heat the Pan

    Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter or oil. Allow it to heat until melted.

  2. 3

    Crack the Eggs

    Gently crack the eggs into a bowl to ensure they are fresh. Then, carefully slide the eggs into the heated skillet.

  3. 4

    Season the Eggs

    Sprinkle the eggs with salt and black pepper to taste.

  4. 5

    Cook the Eggs

    Let the eggs cook for about 3-4 minutes for sunny-side up or until the white is set but the yolk remains runny. If you prefer over-easy eggs, gently flip the eggs and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

  5. 6

    Serve

    Once cooked to your liking, carefully transfer the eggs to a plate. Serve immediately and enjoy!
