Use a non-stick frying pan
Choose a frying pan that is non-stick to prevent the egg from sticking. Make sure the pan is not too hot.
Add a small amount of oil
Add a small amount of oil to the frying pan. This will help prevent the egg from sticking and add extra flavor to the preparation.
Carefully pour in the egg white
Carefully break the egg and pour the white into the pan. Let it spread slowly over the surface of the pan.
Place the yolk in the center
Gently place the yolk in the center of the egg white. The ideal egg should have a whitish white and a soft yolk, both parts perfectly cooked.
Use the secret
Once the egg begins to completely pull away from the pan, but the top is still a little raw, add approximately half a cup of water to the pan and cover it with a lid. Keep the heat low to prevent the edges from burning.
Cook until the egg white is ready
Continue cooking until you notice that the egg white is completely cooked, with no translucent parts. Make sure the yolk has reached the desired consistency.
Remove the egg from the pan
Using a spatula, remove the egg from the pan and transfer it to the plate after a few seconds.
Season to taste
You can season your fried egg with your favorite condiments. A recommendation is to try it with chimichurri for a special and delicious touch.
By following these tips from Argentine chefs, you will be able to prepare fried eggs worthy of a high-quality restaurant, without the hassle of them sticking to the pan. Enjoy this simple yet highly nutritious meal and take your culinary experience to a new level.
