Yes, you can. While the traditional 'half fry' has a runny yolk, you can cook it to your preference. Simply keep the pan covered on low heat for a few extra minutes until the yolk is firm to your liking.
It is traditionally served hot with buttered toast or soft pav (Indian bread rolls). The bread is perfect for dipping into the runny yolk and scooping up the masala. It also pairs well with roti or paratha.
If the masala starts to stick, it means the heat might be too high or the mixture is too dry. Reduce the heat immediately and add a tablespoon or two of water. Stir well to deglaze the pan and continue cooking.
