About Sunnyside egg

Sunnyside eggs are a classic preparation of fried eggs where the yolk remains intact and slightly runny, while the whites are cooked but not flipped. This method is popular across many cuisines, particularly in American and Western breakfast traditions. Typically enjoyed with toast, vegetables, or other breakfast sides, sunnyside eggs offer a rich source of protein, vitamins D and B12, and essential minerals like selenium. The egg yolk also provides healthy fats, though it contains cholesterol, which may be a consideration for those managing cardiovascular health. Prepared with minimal oil or butter, sunnyside eggs can be a nutritious addition to a balanced diet, but excessive use of cooking fats could increase calorie content. This versatile dish is a staple for its simplicity and ability to elevate meals with its bright flavor and attractive appearance.
