Ingredients
- 1 large Eggs
- 1 Bread slices
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Fresh herbs (optional, such as chives or parsley)
Directions
Step 1
Start by toasting the bread: Use a toaster or toaster oven to toast the bread slice until it is golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes. Set aside.
Step 2
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Swirl the pan gently to coat the bottom with the oil.
Step 3
Crack the egg into a small bowl to ensure there are no shells, then gently pour it into the heated skillet.
Step 4
Allow the egg to cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the egg whites have set and the edges are beginning to brown. If you prefer the yolk more cooked, cover the skillet with a lid to help set the yolk.
Step 5
While the egg is cooking, butter the toasted bread slice using a knife or a small spatula.
Step 6
Once the egg is cooked to your liking, carefully transfer it onto the buttered toast using a spatula.
Step 7
Season the fried egg with salt and black pepper to taste. If desired, sprinkle fresh herbs on top for an added burst of flavor.
Step 8
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious fried egg on toast.
