how in the hell do you fry an egg? everytime i try the egg yolk pops and its just plain ole frustrating! any suggesions?

Answers:
The secret to frying an egg without bursting the yoke is to use a nonstick pan.

I use a cast-iron pan but I am an experienced chef so I would suggest one of those teflon pans for you.

Once your egg is halfway done, slide your spatula around the eggs to make sure your egg isn't stuck to your pan then in a fast quick motion, slip the spatula underneath the entire egg. It is important to do this quickly and in one motion.

Now, don't slam the egg down. Kind of just lay it then walk.. it upside down..

Good luck.

Other Answers:
For traditional sunny-side up eggs, melt 1 or 2 tablespoons of butter in a 8-inch non-stick omelet pan or skillet over medium heat. Break open eggs into pan and immediately reduce heat to low. Cook slowly until the whites are completely set and the yolks begins to thicken, but are not hard. For over easy-eggs flip over for 15 seconds. Serve eggs right away and enjoy!

***Do not salt eggs before or during cooking. Salt can cause the eggs to become tough tough during cooking, so for best results salt eggs (if desired) only after cooking.

ps Rachel Ray uses 2 spatulas for easier flipping

Turn the heat down, don't fry an egg over high heat, use medium low. Use more oil so it doesn't stick to the pan.


First cook bacon in the pan, with the grease from the bacon you can fry eggs with that. Flip the egges when necessary unless you want sunny side up

when u fry an egg, the yolk is supposed to "pop", u just smush it all down and cook until its done.
i think,

Add crisco, butter or bacon grease to your frying pan. This will help with the flipping. It took alot of practice for me....and alot of messy eggs.

Make sure your spatula is big enough to hold almost the entire egg. This will also help prevent the youlk from breaking.


when the one side is done get a lid put a little bit of water in it and ump it over the egg and cover it that way u dont have to flip the egg
have a great day


Sounds like the problem is how you are cracking the egg into the pan...

Carefully crack the shell on the side of the pan, but not hard enough to fully open the shell. Then, put both thumbs and fingers on either side and gently open the egg into the pan - don't let it drop to far or that will break the yoke as well!!

Good luck.. now I am hungry!


First off it depends the frying pan your using and the are you using oil or butter to fry the egg. To avoid the breaking of the egg the best thing to do is put a lid over the pan and just wait until the top of the egg looks like it almost poached and then use your spatula to remove it it takes practice. trust me i felt the same way it doesn't take long.

1) put oil in frying pan
2) put egg in pan
3) turn on burner
4) wait til egg is white under
5) then flip and cook til done

hope this helps! (the only dumb question is the question not asked, lol)


YOU THROW SOME OIL IN THE PAN LET IT HEAT UP A BIT , THEN CRACK THE EGG, AND LET IT FALL IN THE PAN , NOT HIGH FROM THE PAN SO IT DOESNT BUST , LET IT COOK A FEW SECONDS , IF YOU WANT YOUR YOUR YOKE WELL DONE SO IT DOESNT GET ALL OVER THE PLACE , USE THE SAME OIL , USE A SPOON AND SLOWLY THROW SOME OF THE OIL ON THE TOP OF THGE EGG OVER AND OVER UNTILL IT HARDENS , DONT PUT THE FIRE TOO HIGH OR YOU LL BURN IT , THATS HOW I DO , AND IT COMES OUT FINE, IF YOU WANT THE YOKE TO BE ALL YUCK AND ALL , DONT THROW OIL ON TOP , LET ME KNOW IF IT WORKS try to put mor oil than usual and pour the hot oil with a spoon on top of the egg yolk it will start cooking it but it will not burst make sure you do this until the yolk looks like a white film. but you can still see the yellow on the inside. enjoy.


no more than medium heat, make sure you got oil in the pan, crack the egg carefully so that the yolk doesn't break and drop in pan, and now you gotta let it cook slowly to kind of harden up the yolk a bit. I test it to see when it is done by slipping a spatula under the white and kind of jiggling it a bit to see how runny the yolk is. Once slight firmed up, get the whole thing and carefully flip it to cook the other side. Well, that's what I do, and yeah, I break the yolk 2 times out of 5.

Don't flip them over. Cover the egg with a lid.

More practice if your flipping them over. I kind of role mine over. I also use a very small fry pan. Only big enough for two eggs. A very hot pan is good too. Alot of people say medium to low, but I keep my fire at the outer edge of the pan. Your call as to what works best for you

My dad always fried them in bacon grease. He never flipped them, he just kept spooning the hot grease over the yolks.

Break the egg into a small bowl and gently pour it into the warmed pan with a little cooking oil. Be careful not to have the heat too high!
Near the end of the cooking time add a tablespoon or so of water ... the fried egg will look prettier.

I love the Rachael Ray technique of using 2 spatulas -- then the eggs can be moved a little more gingerly. Also - I sometimes have difficulty with the yolks sticking to the spatula - but if you give it a quick shot of cook spray it eliminates that problem
The only other suggestion is make sure that you are breaking the eggs open close the bottom of the pan and not letting them drop from high above the pan


use a non-stick pan.
Source(s):
my source is myself Splash grease or what ever it is on top of the egg so it kinda hardens it before you flip it!
