Fried whole eggs are a simple yet versatile dish enjoyed in cuisines worldwide. Cooked by frying eggs in a small amount of oil or butter, this preparation highlights the rich, savory flavor of both the egg whites and yolks. They can be served sunny-side up, over-easy, or well-done depending on preference. A single fried egg is an excellent source of high-quality protein, essential vitamins like B12 and D, and minerals such as selenium and phosphorus. The yolk is also rich in healthy fats and antioxidants like lutein and zeaxanthin, which support eye health. However, fried eggs can become less nutritious if excessive oil, butter, or salt is added during cooking, so moderation is key. Quick to prepare and enormously versatile, fried whole eggs shine as a mainstay breakfast item or a topping for rice, salads, or toast.
