The fried eggs have a golden, lacy, crispy edges, which contrast beautifully with their runny yellow yolks that are well paired with sausages for breakfast. This is a quick recipe for anytime you want to prepare a quick breakfast before leaving for work. Start with a good egg, a hot skillet, and a generous drizzle of olive oil, and you’ll end up with the most flavorful fried egg you’ve ever tasted.
Crack the egg into a bowl first so you can more easily avoid oil splatters this way. Make sure the oil is hot before you pour in the egg, this helps ensure that the egg doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pan, and yields super crispy edges. For medium eggs, just cook the egg for 30 to 60 more seconds. If you want more firm yolks than that, you can cover the egg for 30 seconds or longer while it cooks.
For the sausage, you will need a tablespoon of oil, your sausages, and salt. Prior to cooking, let the sausages reach room temperature then heat oil in a wide pan. Reduce heat to medium and arrange sausages on the pan then sprinkle pepper powder and salt on it. Stir the sausages gently. Cover it with a lid and cook on low to medium heat for 10 – 12 minutes.
These fried eggs and sausages are basically perfect right out of the skillet, you can sprinkle them with a little flaky sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Serve them with a knife and a fork to cut through their crispy undersides. Alternatively, if you have smoked sausages, you can add them on the frying eggs once it half cooked then cover and ket them cook for about two minutes then serve and enjoy.
