Equipment

  • Cast iron frying pan or skillet
  • Table knife
  • Fish slice

Ingredients

  • Eggs x 2
  • Oil x enough to cover the base of the pan

Method

  • Crack the eggs into a bowl.
  • Put the cast iron pan on a high heat on the hob.
  • Pour the enough oil into the base of the pan and leave it to heat up.
  • Once the pan starts smoking it will be hot enough.
  • Pour in the eggs.
  • They will start to cook on the bottom very quickly.
  • Start to cut slits in the egg whites.
  • You will notice the top of the whites cooking as well.
  • Soon you will come to a point where you won’t be able to cut slits.
  • Now leave the eggs to cook until the whites start to surround the yolks.
  • The bottom of the eggs will hopefully be a lovely golden brown colour.
  • Once they are then remove from the oven and serve.
  • Then enjoy.
