Fried eggs are a simple, versatile dish made by cooking eggs in a small amount of oil, butter, or other fat until the whites are set and the yolks reach the desired level of firmness. A staple in many cuisines across the globe, fried eggs are particularly popular in Western breakfasts, Asian rice bowls, and Latin American dishes. Nutritionally, fried eggs are a rich source of high-quality protein, essential amino acids, vitamins like B12, and minerals such as selenium and phosphorus. They also contain healthy fats in their yolks. However, their fat content increases depending on the cooking method and oil used, which can impact calorie and saturated fat levels. With moderation, fried eggs can be part of a balanced diet, offering energy and vital nutrients while encouraging portion control and mindful choices regarding cooking fats.
