About Sunny side up egg

Sunny side up eggs are a classic preparation of fried eggs, recognized for their bright, intact yolk that resembles a sun. Originating from Western cuisine, this simple dish is made by cracking an egg directly onto a hot pan, frying it gently until the whites are cooked but the yolk remains creamy and unbroken. Sunny side up eggs are a rich source of high-quality protein, essential amino acids, and vital nutrients like vitamin D, B vitamins, and choline, which supports brain function and cellular health. They are low in carbs, making them suitable for various dietary plans. However, cooking them with excessive oil or butter can increase calorie and fat content, making them less heart-healthy. Paired with whole-grain toasts or fresh vegetables, sunny side up eggs offer a quick, nutritious start to the day, celebrating simplicity and versatility while providing energy for active lifestyles.
