Ingredients
- Eggs
- Butter, or oil of your choice for cooking
- Seasonings of your choice
Instructions
- Pre-heat a non-stick pan over medium heat, the Perfect Pan cooks fried eggs very well due to its excellent ceramic coating and heating technology
- Add butter to the pan, I use about 1 Tbs for every 2 eggs to prevent any sticking and for flavor plus texture of the egg whites
- Crack each egg into its own small cup, the size of a custard cup
- When the pan is heated well gently slide each egg into the pan, into its own section. The Perfect Pan will cook about 3 eggs at one time.
- Set your time for 3-4 mins, this may depend on your stovetop or preference.Â
- If you like sunny side up then remove the eggs from the pan now. Use a very thin edged spatula to carefully scoop out the eggs while leaving the yolks intact. Make sure the spatula is non-stick as well so it doesn’t mar the pans cooking surface.
- If you or your family/friends want a slightly different type of yolk then make your adaptations here. You can flip them gently and begin cooking them for an additional minute for over easy or 2 minutes for over medium
- For over hard, I place the lid on the pan after I have timed them for 3 minutes and remove it from the heat for 1-2 mins. The steam can also harden the yolk, plus you get some lightly crispy edges on the egg whites.
