Ingredients

  • 2 fresh eggs

  • Crack the eggs into the pan. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Let the eggs cook undisturbed for 2–3 minutes, until the whites have set and look fully opaque.

  • Carefully flip each egg with a thin spatula. As soon as you flip, gently break each yolk with the spatula’s edge, pressing it down so it spreads beneath the white.
  • Cook for another 2–3 minutes, until both the yolks and whites are firm and the edges are a little crisp.
  • Remove the eggs from the pan and serve immediately.
