• Heat small skillet over medium high heat. When hot, add enough butter, about 1/2 tablespoon, so butter spreads across the pan and when tilted, pools to one side. You may also use olive oil, bacon grease or sausage drippings.
• Once butter is melted, add eggs and fry according to desired doneness:

For Sunny Side Up Eggs:

• Crack eggs and heat for 3 minutes. Remove from pan and serve immediately. Do not cover eggs when cooking.

For Over Easy Eggs:

• Place egg into hot butter, in about a minute, or when edges and egg white begin to turn opaque, cover and reduce heat to medium low. This steams the egg. Do this for 1-2 minutes or until top of egg is cooked white, and yolk is runny. Serve immediately.

For Over Medium Eggs:

• Place egg into hot butter, in about a minute, or when edges and egg white begin to turn opaque, cover and reduce heat to medium low. This steams the egg. Do this for 3-4 minutes or until top of egg is cooked white, and yolk is partially runny. Serve immediately.

For Over Hard Eggs:

• Place egg into hot butter, in about a minute, or when edges and egg white begin to turn opaque, cover and reduce heat to medium low. This steams the egg. Do this for 4-5 minutes or until top of egg is cooked white, and yolk is cooked hard. Serve immediately.
