A medium fried egg is a versatile and nutritious food commonly featured in various cuisines worldwide, from American breakfast plates to hearty Asian rice dishes. It is prepared by cooking an egg in a pan with a small amount of oil or butter until the whites are firm and the yolk is partially set, offering a creamy texture. Fried eggs are an excellent source of high-quality protein, essential vitamins like B12, D, and choline, and minerals such as selenium and phosphorus, supporting muscle growth and brain function. While relatively low in calories, fried eggs can be high in cholesterol and saturated fat depending on the cooking method and added oils, which may impact heart health if consumed excessively. Pairing fried eggs with whole grains or vegetables can balance its nutritional profile, making it a satisfying component of a wholesome meal.
