Ingredients
- 1 piece Egg
- 2 slices Bread
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
- 1 slice Cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon Mayonnaise
Directions
Step 1
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add half of the butter to the pan.
Step 2
Once the butter is melted and sizzling, crack the egg into the skillet and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Step 3
Cook the egg for about 2-3 minutes until the white is set and the yolk is cooked to your preferred doneness. Flip the egg gently if you prefer an over-easy or over-hard egg.
Step 4
Remove the cooked egg from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
Step 5
Spread mayonnaise onto one side of each bread slice.
Step 6
Add the remaining butter to the skillet and place the slices of bread in, mayonnaise-side up. Toast for about 1 minute until the bottoms are golden and crisp.
Step 7
Place the slice of cheddar cheese on one slice of bread while still in the skillet so it begins to melt slightly.
Step 8
Remove the bread slices from the skillet. Place the fried egg on top of the bread with the melted cheese and cover with the second slice, mayonnaise-side facing in.
Step 9
Cut the sandwich in half if desired and serve immediately.
