Sunny-Side Up Fried Eggs
Every stovetop has a different low setting, and skillets vary in thickness and heat conductivity. It may take a few attempts to determine the best timing for your equipment. For us, 3 minutes was perfect for completely set whites and thick but runny yolks. If you like very loose yolks, shave off a minute; for lightly browned whites and firm yolks, add a minute. To make just two eggs, use an 8-inch nonstick skillet and 2 teaspoons of butter.

Tip
Don’t break the yolks when cracking the eggs into the bowl. If you’re not confident in your egg-cracking skills, break the eggs one at a time into a small bowl before combining them.

01Heat a 10-inch nonstick skillet over low heat for 3 minutes. Crack the eggs into 1 bowl. Add the butter to the hot pan and swirl until melted. When the butter stops foaming, slowly pour the eggs into the skillet. Gently nudge the yolks with a wooden spoon to divide and space evenly in the pan.
