Tips for Delicious Fried Eggs
Of course, the basic process of frying eggs involves cracking the eggs into a bowl, beating them evenly with seasonings, and frying them on both sides. The following tips will help elevate your dish to a delicious level.
- To achieve fluffy fried eggs, the pan and oil/fat must be hot before adding the eggs, and maintain a high heat level throughout the frying process. Before beating the eggs, whisk them to create bubbles. Adding ingredients such as onions and coriander not only enhances the flavor of the dish but also contributes to the fluffiness of the final product. Adding a small amount of baking soda also achieves this effect.
- To eliminate the fishy smell: Add 1/3 teaspoon of white wine to the beaten eggs, not only will the dish not smell fishy, but it will also have an enticing aroma.
- To keep the eggs soft and smooth, even if left for a long time, add a little cooking oil during the beating process.
- If you don’t want your fried eggs to be boring, you can use additional ingredients such as mushrooms, ground meat, meat, or shrimp… There are no limits to this creativity, and every cook can have their own unique recipe according to their preferences.
Basic Instructions for Fluffy Golden Fried Eggs
Step 1: Crack the eggs into a bowl, add seasoning and beat the eggs evenly until the seasoning is dissolved. Add finely chopped spring onions to the egg mixture and continue stirring. Add a tablespoon of cooking oil and mix well to prevent the eggs from drying out after frying.
Step 2: Add cooking oil to the pan, wait until the oil is hot, then pour the eggs into the pan and spread them evenly. Flip the eggs to ensure even cooking. Use chopsticks to roll the eggs into a round shape.
If you have a large quantity of eggs, it is recommended to fry them in batches. Pour one layer of eggs first, wait for that layer to solidify, then roll it into a corner of the pan and continue frying another layer.
When the eggs are cooked, cut them into small pieces and arrange them on a plate. Enjoy them while they are still hot.
Things to note when making fried eggs
- Do not beat the eggs too forcefully, do not use an egg beater. The fluffy texture of fried eggs does not require vigorous beating like making cakes. Just use chopsticks to evenly mix the egg white and yolk together, with bubbles forming. Remember to beat gently and evenly.
- Is it because duck eggs taste fishy that chicken eggs are preferred for frying? If you can find good quality duck eggs, both types are delicious and not fishy. However, chicken eggs have a more pleasant and enticing aroma.
- If you don’t have a non-stick pan or the non-stick coating is damaged, add a little more cooking oil than usual and make sure it is very hot before pouring the eggs in. A pan that is not hot enough will cause the eggs to stick.
- If you’re not skilled enough to flip and roll the eggs with chopsticks, use a spatula.
With these simple tips, you can have delicious fried eggs.
