Because even with a simple fried egg you can make great things, having fun and eating with taste
The fried eggs they are probably one of the easiest dishes to prepare. Here, not only will we discover how to do it in a workmanlike manner, but also how to make it more beautiful.
The perfect fried egg
To prepare thefried egg you must first choose one no stick pan that spreads heat evenly and slowly.
The grandmothers used iron pans, "tegamini" in fact, but also a fair amount of oil to prevent the white from sticking. For a lighter cooking we suggest the non-stick coating.
Once greased the pan with a knob of butter or a little oil, we break the egg trying to move the yolk to the center of the album, both to make the result more beautiful to the eye, and to cook everything correctly.
The cooking must be sweet and slow and take just a few minutes. The album must simply thicken and the yolk must remain soft. Salt and pepper should be added only at the end as well as any seasonings such as parsley, chives, truffles and cheese.
Eggs in the hole
After learning the basics, let's move on to something more creative.
The eggs can be cooked, always in the pan, but with a wrap around, or if we want to say it in another way, inside a hole. Here are some ideas.
Fried egg in the pepper
To prepare it you must first wash and cut a pepper into slices eliminating the seeds inside and not breaking the slices.
You can choose the color of the pepper according to your tastes: green if you love the bitter aftertaste, yellow for a delicate taste and red for an intense and sweet taste.
Cook the slices in a large pan with a little oil. Each washer will be the container of an egg.
Once softened put in the center of each one an egg opening it gently.
Cook for a few minutes and then add salt and pepper.
Fried egg in bread
This is also a great idea for the breakfast, if you like to do it in American style.
Use of the sliced bread or bread to get all the same slices.
Drill them in the center with a round pastry cutter big enough to hold an egg.
Lightly toast the bread on one side on a lightly greased pan and then flip it over on the other side filling the center with an egg. Also in this case, each hole slice will contain only one egg.
Fried egg in onion
The sliced onion is not large enough to hold an egg, so be careful choose a very large one in diameter.
The procedure is the same as the previous recipes, but we suggest you to cook the onion over a low heat for a few more minutes why must caramelize.
More ideas to "pocket" the eggs
There are also other ingredients that can contain an egg, but in this case we talk about oven cooking.
Any examples? You can cook an egg inside an avocado cut in half and slightly hollowed out and then seasoned with slices of smoked salmon.
You can too fill a boiled potato and then complete with slices of cheese that will melt with the heat.
Or coated a muffin mold with slices of bread spread out thinly with a rolling pin and place an egg in the center of each. You can also do this with bacon or other meats.
