About Egg fried in olive oil

Egg fried in olive oil is a simple yet nutritious dish commonly found in Mediterranean-inspired cuisine. Made by gently frying an egg in extra virgin olive oil until the whites are set and the yolk remains soft, this preparation highlights both flavor and health benefits. Olive oil, rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats and antioxidants, elevates the dish with its smooth texture and robust flavor. Eggs provide high-quality protein, essential vitamins, and minerals, including vitamin B12 and choline, supporting muscle health and brain function. While the natural fats in eggs and olive oil are healthy in moderation, the dish's caloric content may increase depending on the amount of oil used. Free-range or organic eggs can further enhance its nutritional value. With its roots in Mediterranean culinary traditions, this item serves as a quick, wholesome option for breakfast or snacks, combining simplicity with balanced nutrition.
