Fried Eggs?? Lets Discuss

[Taz]

My sister 'frys' hers in boiling water!! I know I know, thats what I thought but she tells me it works....I have yet to try it tho!!

Thats how I do mine too. They are poached but looks like a fried egg and perfect every time. Just an inch of water in the frying pan

Im in the "frylight and lid" camp!! It sort of steams it I suppose. No snot!!

I've never had any issues with frying eggs using fry light! Its always worked for me! I turn my over if I want them cooked all the way through (like for a sandwich), but when having a fry up I like dipping my chips in the yolk, so i turn them over once ive turned the heat off, so it "seals" the top because I dont like the look of it lol then i can cut it open myself

I use a non-stick frying pan, fry light and then when the bottom is pretty much cooked, i cover the pan with a round metal baking tray for minute or so..come out perfect!

I spray my pan with fry light crack the egg, season well, add a splash of boiling water and cover the egg with a lid, the yolk stays nice and runny but no snot!

Everytime I see the word 'snot' it makes me giggle! :8855:

snotty egg?

That egg white on the top of the fried egg that doesn't set properly

Simple solution, Buy a really good non stick pan and fry without oil or fry light, just make shure you use a wooden spatula so as not to damage the non stick, Syn free fried egg....

But poached eggs are far nicer, Pot of boilling water, 2 Tbsp of white wine vinneger, Crack egg and drop in slow and easy no need for whirlpool, perfect poached egg.

I spray my pan (its an omelette/ pancake pan) with fry light and get the pan fairly hot. My eggs never stick and i can manage to turn them over for a couple of seconds just to "cook" the top of the yolk which prevents them being snotty ha ha brilliant

I do mine on low heat then stick pan under preheated grill for FEW seconds. Lovely every time and still runny

I do mine on low heat then stick pan under preheated grill for FEW seconds. Lovely every time and still runny

I do that with mine too

I do the lid thing - the steam created takes care of the top of the egg - no more snot - but a nice runny yolk - something to dip your syn free chips into!!!!!!

 

[OzzieMoz]

"snotty eggs" is definitely the phrase that pays today!

 

[lupuscow]

i too dislike snotty eggs so i just turn my egg over in the pan, this stops the bottom from overcooking too.

I break the egg into a bowl and put a plate over it and bung it in the microwave for 60-90 seconds. If you experiment and get the time right the yolk will still be runny - cook for longer if you want it solid.
