How to Cook Over Hard Eggs

Cooking over hard eggs involves cooking the egg on both sides until the yolk is completely solid, providing a consistency similar to a hard-boiled egg. Here is a guide on how to prepare them:

Select your ingredients: For best results, use fresh eggs and either a non-stick pan or seasoned cast iron skillet. This ensures the eggs won’t stick and will easily slide out of the pan once cooked.

Heat the pan: Apply a small amount of butter or oil to your pan and heat over medium to low heat. It’s recommended to use butter for a savoury and almost nutty flavour, but olive oil or a neutral oil like vegetable or canola oil can also be used.

Add the eggs: Crack one or two eggs into the pan and season with a pinch of sea salt and a few grinds of black pepper.

Cook the first side: Let the eggs cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the whites are firm but the yolk is still runny.

Flip and cook the second side: Using a spatula, gently flip the egg over and cook for another 2 minutes. About a minute in, gently press the yolk with the spatula to ensure it breaks and becomes fully cooked through.

Serve: Once the yolk is completely cooked, remove the egg from the pan and serve. Over hard eggs are great for those who don’t like runny yolks, and they make a perfect addition to breakfast sandwiches or as a side with toast.

  2. Add the diced chillies, rice vinegar, and salt to a food processor, blender, or if you have one, a mortar and pestle1.
  3. If you’re adding the optional ingredients, put in the garlic cloves and lime juice.
  4. Blend the mixture until it achieves a thick, pasty consistency.
