Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1-2 tablespoon coconut oil (enough to coat your pan)
  • 2 eggs

Instructions

  • In a large pan or skillet, melt the coconut oil over low to medium-low heat.
  • Once the oil is melted, add the eggs to the pan.
  • Cook the eggs for 2 to 3 minutes, until the white is firm but the yolk is still runny. Flip the eggs and cook for 2 more minutes until the yolk is fully cooked through. About 1 minute in, gently press the yolk with a spatula to make sure it’s broken.

Notes

    1. Use fresh eggs for best results - when fried, fresh egg whites hold their shape better whereas the whites on older eggs tend to spread.
    2. Use room temperature eggs for best results and faster cooking times.
    3. Fry the eggs over low to medium-low heat. Lower temperatures work best when trying to make over hard fried eggs.
    4. Do not skimp on the oil. If your pan starts to dry up, add more so the eggs cook better.
    5. These eggs are best served right away.
