Ingredients
  

Main
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Non-stick skillet
  • Spatula
  • Small bowl
  • Stove

Method
 

  1. Begin by placing your non-stick skillet on medium heat.
  2. Once the skillet is warm, add the butter and let it melt completely.
  3. Crack the eggs into a small bowl and carefully slide them into the skillet.
  4. Sprinkle a pinch of salt and pepper over the eggs.
  5. Allow the eggs to cook for about 2-3 minutes until the whites set.
  6. Using your spatula, gently slide it under one egg and flip it carefully, cooking for an additional 30 seconds.
  7. After flipping, check the whites around the yolk; they should be set but the yolk should remain runny.
  8. Remove the eggs from the skillet and serve immediately.

Notes
