Recipe Tips

  • If you prefer, you can spread the butter on the bread rather than melting it in the pan. This method is likely to be a bit healthier as you can use a lot less butter.
  • You can cook the egg for as long as you want. However, be sure you do not burn the bread. Personally, I prefer to have runny eggs rather than solid.
  • If you want your egg to be sunnyside up, then just do not flip it. You may want to fry one side of the bread before adding the egg, so both sides of the bread are nicely toasted.
