Instructions

  1. Heat the butter in a frying pan over medium heat until it foams slightly.
  2. Add the slice of bread and fry it for 2 minutes on each side until crisp.
  3. Crack the egg straight onto the bread in the pan, or next to it if the slice is too large.
  4. Lower the heat a little and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until the white is set and the yolk is still runny.
  5. Season with salt and pepper, and serve straight away.

Variations and tips

With ham. Add a slice of ham to the pan before placing the egg on top.

Cheese version. Sprinkle grated cheese over the egg during cooking so it melts.
