The art of the perfect sunny side up egg is simple: crispy edges, fully cooked whites, and a gloriously runny yolk. A quick, protein-packed breakfast popular across India, often called a 'half fry'.
Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium-low heat. Add the butter and let it melt and bubble gently.
Carefully crack the eggs into the pan, making sure not to break the yolks. Leave some space between them if cooking together.
Cook gently for 2-3 minutes. The egg whites should be opaque and set, but the yolk should still be liquid and jiggly. For faster cooking of the whites, you can cover the pan with a lid for the last minute.
Sprinkle with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Carefully slide the eggs onto a plate using a spatula and serve immediately.
