This chef’s tips could help take your egg game to the next level as Alsawwaf claim many people make simple mistakes when it comes to rustling up a perfect fried egg.
To help everyone take their fried eggs to the next level, Alsawwaf said your first port of call should always be a non-stick pan.
In a video, the chef insisted that melting butter or clarified butter in a non-stick pan before frying your eggs will “add a lovely flavour” to the finished result while stopping your eggs from becoming stuck to the pan in the process.
Alsawwaf also cautioned against cracking your eggs directly into the pan and said you should always crack them into a bowl first to make sure the yolk doesn’t break.
Also, Alsawwaf said: “Fresh eggs are essential for perfectly fried eggs. When an egg ages, the whites and yolk thin out. This means that the white will spread instead of being compact and thick and the yolk won’t sit atop the whites perfectly.”
For the right tempertature for frying egg, the chef said you should be aiming for a “high heat” between 255°F to 280°F – or 123°C to 137°C.
She added: “Having high heat means that the eggs could brown and blister before being properly cooked in the centre.
“Fried eggs should be shiny and have fully set whites and shouldn’t be blistered or browned, while the yolks should be properly cooked according to your preference.”
