a no flip over easy egg.

Welcome back to The Average Kitchen.

and check out some of our other videos.
Let's head over to the stove.
(fast-paced music)
So I have a small pan if you don't
have a small pan like this.
No big deal, it'll still work.
And what we're gonna do is we're gonna throw
our heat on here probably on low to medium, I would say.
So we don't want that pan to get too, too hot.
We're gonna start it with some butter
maybe about half a teaspoon, roughly of butter.
We'll put that into our pan
and once that butter starts to melt
we're gonna gently crack her egg into our pan
and we're gonna slowly start to cook it.
And essentially what's gonna happen
is we're almost going to steam that egg.
We're going to put in a teaspoon of water (bubble pops)
and we're (bubble pops) gonna cover it
and cook it (bubble pops) on low heat.
So you're not gonna get that like crispy edge
all around the egg, which I'm not a huge fan of.
I don't (bubble pops) know about (bubble pops) you
(bubble pops) and what we're gonna get
is a real nice soft looking egg that's gonna
be cooked through but the yolk is gonna be nice and runny.
So we could see our butter starting to melt here.
So we'll give that another second.
So the other thing I recently learned is that they suggest
that you crack your egg on a solid flat surface,
which prevents or helps prevent any egg shell getting
into your egg and the risk of any kind of bacteria
that may be on the inside of the egg.
I would think there shouldn't be any
being pushed into the egg.
So little learning point that I learned recently,
so our butter is pretty much melted here.
So let's see how this goes.
(egg taps)
(egg cracking)
So the key to this is take your time.
So we're really, really going to let this slowly cook
and cook over medium heat, as I mentioned.
(fast-paced music)
So I've got a kind of pliable spatula.
I'm just going to sort of cut that white just a little bit.
Maybe I'm going to turn my heat down a little bit here.
So I don't wanna boiling too much. (pan sizzling)
You can see that it's moving around (mouse clicking)
pretty well. (mouse clicking)
So I'm gonna (mouse clicking) pour in that
(mouse clicking) teaspoon of water,
just on the side there,
and essentially we're going to cover that
and just give it some time to slowly cook.
The other thing you can do as well is with that water,
we can grab some of the water here
and we could just baste the top of our egg
And that's basting it with the water
and with that butter that we have.
So that's gonna help cook that yolk as well.
So we'll put the lid back on.
Again, there's no rush on doing this
so we're gonna sort of take our time.
So you can sort of (fast-paced music) play
with your heat a little bit.
So I know that water kinda got rid
of some of the heat in the pan, but that's okay.
So I'm just gonna slowly bring that up just a little bit.
If you don't have a gas stove, that's okay.
Every stove is different, so just adjust it accordingly.
So I think while this is starting to warm up again
I'm gonna hit it with a little bit of salt and pepper,
(salt grinding)
(pepper grinding)
nothing too crazy.
And maybe give that a another little baste.
Let's see how well that eggs moving around in the pan
and we're gonna throw a lid back on.
(fast-paced music)
All right, so coming close here, Jamie, if you don't mind.
This has been steaming for a few minutes.
You could see now how the top of that egg is cooked.
So it's not a sunny side egg,
it's an over-easy egg with no flip.
(dynamite explodes)
All right, let's head over.
(upbeat music)
So now it's the moment of truth.
You'll see our egg here looks beautiful.
You don't have that kind of gross crispy edge
but yet it's still
not quite
fully
super runny but definitely has some runniness to it
and I think I just left it in the pan
maybe 30 seconds too long
in the midst of trying to make this video.
But you could definitely see it still would be
considered an over-easy egg as opposed to over hard.
So that's a real quick and easy way to be able
to cook that over-easy egg without that stress
of having to try to flip it and crack your yoke.
So steam it, throw a cover over, a little bit of water.
Boom, you're done. That's our video for today.
I hope you liked it. Leave us a comment.
We'll get back to you.
Check out our other videos
and we'll see you on the next one.
