Preparation
Chef’s notes
It’s recommended to spoon some of the oil over the cooking egg to help it cook more quickly on top and make it even more bubbly.
An egg white variation is available for those who don't like yolks.
For a crispy sandwich egg, flip it over for an additional 30 seconds or so, until the yolk is almost but not fully set.
Multiple crispy eggs can be made at once, but frying them one at a time gives more crispy edges.
