Whats the best way to fry eggs so the yolk is runny....
and the white is cooked without accidentally breaking the egg yolk?

I suck at frying eggs.

I can't find the perfect technique.

Maybe it's what oil you fry them in?

I dunno.

Slowly on lowest heat eventually the white will be cooked the yolk runny.
If you cook them on high heat you have to keep checking and watching them.

Heat your pan at 3. Sprinkle in some dry herbs. Once warm, bring it down to a 2 & crack the egg over the herbs. Sprinkle the tiniest amount of paprika on the wet egg. As soon as all the clear parts have gone white, count to 30. Remove egg. Be careful not to burst yolk.

medium heat.
put eggs in pan for 30-45 seconds uncovered.
then drop an ice cube in the frying pan and cover.
the steam will cook/harden the skin around the yolk so it won't break when you take it out.
in 3-4 minutes = perfection

Low heat in a non stick pan no oil. The egg won't become rubber.

Re: Whats the best way to fry eggs so the yolk is runny....
If you're going to fry them then use vegetable oil it has a higher boiling point, meaning that it can get hotter before degrading.

This higher oil temp allows the stuff that comes in contact with it to cook fast leaving the inside nice and fluid while the outside is completely cooked.

Veg oil medium-high heat.

Re: Whats the best way to fry eggs so the yolk is runny....
plain steel thick bottom pan (so eggs wont slide when you tilt it to grab oil), low heat (under the temp that causes bubbles to form while cooking), lots of disposable oil so you can pour it over the yolks, pour oil over the yolks until the color no longer changes and they're done - perfectly cooked with no gooey parts, yolk ideal for dipping

Actually, I am pretty good at frying eggs, believe me, and I do it with medium hot pan withsunflower oil, the best for frying a decent egg and only enough oil,not to much,you don't want to immerse the whole egg on it,remember.Throw the egg carefully in the hot oil, try to place the yolk in the center to cook whites evenly. If it comes to the edge,placeit with the help of the cup, it will hold because of the white cooking underneath.Make round movements for the oil go around the white, but be carefull not toimmerse the yolk, because you don't want to fry it.
They always come perfect!

medium heat; sunny-side up, w/a lid, but donot walk away from the stove, nor take your eyes off it while doing it.- and if you can do that, please let me know how you did itblinkbecause "runny yolks" is the best way weare told eggs should be eaten to get the most benefit of them.

With practice comes perfection. Don't let to take yourself down like that! Every time you do it, you can try to make it better. You will get your technique.
Break the egg into a cup first, carefully, and place it carefully into the pan. Old eggs and industrial eggs tend to break easily... Nothing like some organic free raised chicken eggs.
You can pour hot oil on them with the help of a spoon, if they are still runny.
I found that eggs straight from the fridge instead of room temperature are best to get the runny yolk.

just fry normally and then add a small amount of water and cover the egg with a saucepan lid. The top will be perfectly cooked ( no snot) with a nice runny yolk.

1. get a clean stainless steel pan.
2. crack 6 eggs in a bowl using both hands.
3. warm pan on 1/2 heat "5" till the butter starts to bubble evenly.
4. pour eggs in pan and place a lid on it. count to 30 sec and turn the heat down too "3" for another 1 1/2 minutes.
5. times up ,turn temp back up to "5"lift lid and seperate and flip eggs. flip eggs towards the egde of the pan with the front of the spatula.
6. wait about a minute and enjoy.

Re: Whats the best way to fry eggs so the yolk is runny....
i learned this method from my uncle.

castillian eggs- pour a liberal amount of olive oil in the pan, then turn it on low heat. after 30 seconds to a minute, tip the pan to the side so all of the oil is in the "corner" crack egg gently in the pan. it should not sizzle, but it may begin to run a little this is okay though. the yolk will be intact if you do it right. you just spoon some hot oil over the top of the egg, with a metal spoon, just a little bit at a time, keeping the pan tipped to the side. low heat


its a gentle and healthy way to cook the egg and hardly anyone can fuck it up.
