Midnight snack.
I turned the heat up to medium high. I melted a large part of butter and added the wheat bread. After sufficient toasting I flipped it and added another pat of butter. Once that was toasted I set it aside and added more butter. I cracked an egg. The yolk broke because it was from our chicken that has always had weak yolks. I had a little bit of salt, pepper and paprika. Flipped it to cook the other side. And placed it on the bread which had been applied with some sharp cheddar.
This is how I did it this time. Sometimes I’ll toast the bread in the toaster. Sometimes I’ll use American cheese instead of sharp cheddar. Sometimes I want that runny yolk so I’ll choose a different egg.
But what’s your strategy? Do you use any condiments?
Cost: 40¢ and a backyard egg.
I usually put the bread without butter on the pan as I heat up the pan to medium. Once the bread is starting to crisp up, I turn down the heat to low, pull the bread off and crack in the egg (I usually break the yoke too). Pepper pepper pepper.
By the time i’ve put mayo on the bread, the egg is usually ready to be flipped. I turn off the heat and remove it from the burner, so the other side of the egg cooks off the residual heat. Then I put some saurkraut and fermented jalepeno slices on the bread, and put on the egg.
Yummy and easy. :)
