The Spanish Fried Egg
From darbar 16 years agoIngredients
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil shopping list
- 1 large, very fresh egg, preferably organic shopping list
- coarse sea salt, such as Maldon shopping list
How to make it
- Heat the oil in an 8-inch skillet, preferably non-stick, over medium-high heat until almost smoking. Break the egg into the skillet, being careful not to puncture the yolk. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until the white is puffy, sizzled, and set, but the yolk is still runny, gently loosening the white from the skillet with a thin metal spatula and pouring hot oil over the yolk. The egg should be done in about 45 seconds. Using a thin slotted spatula, lift the egg out of the skillet, gently shaking off the excess oil. Transfer the egg to a plate.
- Personally, I would put the egg atop a piece of good bread, toasted and buttered. Maybe a piece of hearty rye, sourdough or artisan bread.
