To ask if this is the most perfectly cooked fried egg you've ever seen?

No snotty gloopy stuff on the top, but still beautifully runny inside. A little bit of crunch on one side but not enough to feel like you're eating overcooked bacon 😋

I forgot about the image reviews! Good things come to those who wait...

I despise eggs, but the yolk doesn't look yellow enough to me. Maybe it's just the lighting though!

It is a thing of beauty, but to be honest , the egg DH added to my bacon roll at lunch time was prettier. I just did not think to take a picture 🤦🏻‍♀️

Mmmm makes me miss Grandad and his perfect fried eggs. Do share your technique!

That's my perfect egg ♥️♥️♥️ love a dippy egg that has no snot😂

@Livingthebestlifetook the words right out of my mouth. Looks delicious.

@EmbroideredGardenerwhat technique do you use to ensure no snot?

Nope. Needs to be crispy, fried on both sides and solid.

I always use a lid on the pan which seems to help, but if when I give it a little wobble and I see too much movement then I have perfected gently turning the eggs over for a second before serving up - with the heat off, just to let the residual heat through the snot!

I don’t like to be fussy but it’s too crunchy underneath and the yolk isn’t perfectly central or the white rounded enough. It’s breakfast but it isn’t art op!

My poached eggs are perfect

Nah sorry - needs more crispiness and the yolk to be brighter but that could be lighting.

Hope you enjoyed it though.

Don't like any crispiness - sorry OP,
athough I appreciate your passion.
Basically i like mine almost like a flat poached egg.

Literally a 4/10 no colour and still seems runny

I like them just a very little brown and crisp at the edges.

Agree putting a lid on the pan helps, but I also spoon some of the hot oil over the white to help it. I have a special teaspoon I keep for that purpose.

It's all in the timing - getting it out of the pan when the white is cooked but the yolk is still runny.

Looks a bit over to me. To avoid snot but ensure a runny yolk, use a lid on the pan and to get the top side over add a little water to make steam, place the lid on and enjoy the snot removing poaching effect of the steam. Only needs about 10-20 seconds.

Sorry OP YABU. Runny eggs are an abomination.

Fried egg at this hour?

Fried egg at this hour?

Fried egg at any hour.

For a quick dinner!

Exactly! Eggs are not just a breakfast food or ingredient!

The yolk is off-centre, and isn't bright yellow enough. 🍳
Try again. You can do better, and you know it! 🙂

Don’t you get egg ick eating them this late? I love a fried egg at lunchtime or maybe with a steak in the evening but….your egg is very aesthetically pleasing tho

Erm, no! I don't like yellow yolks because it means they're snotty!

I would like to put a little sea salt on it and stick a chip in it.
