Steps
Prepare the Toast
Toast the bread slices in a toaster or a pan over medium heat until golden brown and crispy. Spread with butter if desired.
Fry the Eggs
In a non-stick pan, melt 1 tbsp of butter or heat oil over medium heat. Carefully crack 2 eggs into the pan, ensuring the yolks remain intact. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Fry for 2-3 minutes, until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Repeat with the remaining 2 eggs.
Serve Immediately
Place the freshly fried eggs on the toast and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh parsley or chives if desired.
Extra Tips
► For a perfect runny yolk, don't overcook; remove from heat as soon as the whites are set.
► If you like spicier flavors, sprinkle a pinch of paprika or chili flakes on the egg before serving.
► Experiment with different types of bread, such as rye or whole wheat, for extra flavor and texture.
