Don't want to be that guy but if you've been frying eggs for YEARS and haven't learned from trial and error/experience then you should move back in with mommy 😂
Thanks for making this video 🙏 My mother never thought me how to make anything she would always get mad if I ask her how to do it , I always had to look up videos on how to make anything , wish this would be a help to others 😊
I use the small pan and flip it with the pan itself, no utinsels. Practice with a piece of bread until you think you've got the hang of it then try it with an egg. You want to slide it up and over slide gently back down into the pan. When you learn it show us in your video. Thanks. Like most of the videos BTW. Also subscribed to Jack on the go.
I agree I work in a breakfast cafe and thats how we flip eggs. Small pan on high heat and we flip the egg with the pan. Once you get it down there is no going back
Thank you, from a person who doesn't eat eggs making them for a tiny human who definitely does. your recipe was great, me and the five year old were able to follow the clear instructions and make a fried egg together. the double egg method worked!
I have to be the English police... "How To Fry The Perfect Egg" means you have the perfect egg and are going to fry it. Try "How To Perfectly Fry an Egg".
Jack, if yo want to do sunny side up put a splash of water in the pan and cover it. Try it and do a vid. The white part gets steamed but the yellow stays wet. I sprinkle a bit of salt on the whites. After you put the lid on you shut the heat and wait about 60 seconds. Perfect every time.
"Perfect" is a matter of opinion. I put my pan on med-high heat so the egg doesn't spread too much. I cook it "Thai style" with crispy edges. I like to get the yolk just barely cook so it's more like jelly. Then I drop it on a toasted English muffin.
Jacques Pepin says crack an egg on a flat surface and it will not crack in pieces. It will crack down the middle. Also it will not introduce bacteria that is often on egg shells. Scary that so many are wondering how to fry and egg though lol no offense
I also turn my heat off after I flip and there is definitely enough heat to finish cooking the eggs. I can use a small pan, but I use a flexible spatula and they turn out perfect. I can also use a cast iron skillet with non-stick results when I use the non-stick spray and keep the heat down to med-low.
Don't use spray guys. Put a super small amount of olive oil and coat with butter. Heat at medium, put egg in. ADD A LITTLE WATER AND COVER. Flip when ready, season, uncover and serve. Works every single time.
I am an barbarian. I like to break the eggyolk. Also other people feel free to experiment with some spices besides salt and pepper. A little ground paprika, a little ground kerry. Things like that. (oh if you want it looking fancy you can use some parsly) (or want cheese on top of it do it after you flipped it)
preheat pan on high 1 minute -- spray or butter -- turn to low -- drop in egg --- cover for 2 minutes -- if not done enough turn off heat and flip for 30 seconds. it's worked for 70 years.
It's amazing how many people don't know how to cook especially younger kids these days. It might be good to start basics for everyday life. Luckily my daughter knows basics but needs to learn a lot still before college. Thank you for all the vids, love ya!
Thank you very much ! I can finally make great sunnyside up eggs thanks to you ! In the past I always used a small pan for a couple eggs n kept the heat on.
You're good, Jack! I've been looking for a variety of tips for frying eggs for 50 ppl n so far you gave me the most in a short amount of time. 😊thank-you!
I disagree 100% . I use the small pan with a coating of butter then add some water. Crack two or three eggs, cover with lid. Water turns to steam which cooks the eggs on top. Turn the heat off and let the eggs cook. I've cooked eggs this way for years and I'm not changing.
That sort of makes sense but it does not work that way. The egg is a certain size, actually it is UP TO but not necessarily the size of its cooking pan. If you have to small a spatula, it will not or may not lift the egg intact. In other words, it may split and fall apart. So, maybe, maybe not.
Hmm🤔 I always used to cook them sunny side up, cooking t with water and not turning it over to make it a perfect fried egg. I loved the tip about cracking two eggs together, how about doing a video of tips and tricks in the kitchen?
I always use small shallow pan with see trough lid on it. I preheat it with lid on (so lid gets hot) crack eggs in put the lid on and walk away, as soon as you see that whites over yolks are getting... white it's pretty much ready, no flipping no nothing, perfect runny yolk.
Jack, you gotta have a little bit of freshly ground salt and pepper. Also, I use a sprinkle of garlic powder with some cayenne. Over easy is my favorite egg, but I like to get each side golden brown so I cook it a bit longer on each side than Jack.
As you said Jack heat control is important, i think too many people have a high heat and bottom cooks before the top. Better to be on med even med low and take longer than to burn it
If you want over easy you can do what my grandpa used to and use bacon drippings (a lot) and baste the top with the drippings or you can cover it with a lid after adding a small splash of water if youre scared to do the flip
I have been trying to fry eggs for over 10 years and they ALWAYS LOOK LIKE A TODDLER WAS IN THE KITCHEN! This video helped me to actually fry 2 perfectly cooked over-medium cooked eggs. Mind...... blown!
macboogieland the egg whites have to be cooked a few inches around the egg before you can flip and not break the yoke. Removing the pan and tilting it is key. Also let it roll onto the pan instead of dropping hard back into the the pan when you flip the egg.
hey Jack I heard that no stick spray is not good for non stick pans as it bonds to the non stick surface and that's why non stick pans fail over time just got some new ones (again) only using butter and oils in these 🍳
John Goodman I can't remember if I heard it from Alton Brown or America's test kitchen anyway when I fry in mine from now on it only oil or butter non stick should be labeled disposable
hey jack, what kind of non-stick sprays can you recommend? usually we're still cookin' with oil or butter, but how your egg is sliding looks pretty amazing. greetings from germany
Just one cup? You must be on hard times! Here we slosh the bacon grease on top of the egg so that we don't have to turn it. Of course we re use the bacon grease. We never fry just one egg either. They come in dozens, don't they?
Alternatively if you suck at flipping like me, simply turn the heat down to low and cover the pan. Wait a minute or two for the heat inside to cook the top of the egg, salt and pepper it, then serve.
It’s the roll part I have trouble with. The white of the egg always doesn’t completely turn over and the egg is folded on itself. Plus, what was the temperature of the egg you cracked?
Nah. The better way is to baste it. Use a medium low heat and don't flip it. Put a couple tablespoons of water in the frying pan and cover for 1-2 minutes, either slide the egg on a plate or carefully plate with a spatula. As far as fat goes, butter is good, bacon fat is even better. Either will give better flavor than spray. This method will produce an egg that's almost like a poached egg. Kind of a cross between poached and fried.
Seeing inspirational videos like this always makes me forget my wife's late term miscarriage. Thank you Jack.
Sseth eggs always remind me of my miscarriages

You really don't know how useful this was for me
I like these short how-to videos. Solid advice here! Thanks!
That is a well done fried egg. No burnt edges. That was what I was looking for.
I personally love "burnt edges" if you are referring to edges that have browned a bit. It makes it nice and crispy and gives it a more fried taste.
nothing wrong with burnt edges. are you also scared of char grill marks on your steak?
Underrated tutorial
i feel hopeless as a human that i just had to watch a video on how to fry an egg... guess im going to make eggs now
it has really come to the point in my life where im searching how to make an egg
Me too....and I'm 59! 🥺
with all your experience in cooking, have you not learned how to flip an egg?
Thank you for the clear instructions
"Perfect" is a matter of opinion. I put my pan on med-high heat so the egg doesn't spread too much. I cook it "Thai style" with crispy edges. I like to get the yolk just barely cook so it's more like jelly. Then I drop it on a toasted English muffin.

on top. Turn the heat off and let the eggs cook. I've cooked eggs this way for years
and I'm not changing.
use a small pan since it will maintian a round shape and u can just tilt the pan to slide off the egg
you can use a small spatula for a smaller pan right?
I use a small pan and hat you call a fish spatula the one which is small and longer then regular ones works perfectly
Instead of a bigger pan why don't you just use a smaller spatula?
That sort of makes sense but it does not work that way. The egg is a certain size, actually it is UP TO but not necessarily the size of its cooking pan. If you have to small a spatula, it will not or may not lift the egg intact. In other words, it may split and fall apart. So, maybe, maybe not.
Frying an egg is the simplest and hardest thing to do. It shows a lot of skills. A lot of people still can't flip it without bursting the yolk.
I have tried and it's awesome! This inspired me to create a TH-cam channel!
But Jack! We only eat them scrambled!
Hmm🤔 I always used to cook them sunny side up, cooking t with water and not turning it over to make it a perfect fried egg. I loved the tip about cracking two eggs together, how about doing a video of tips and tricks in the kitchen?
Another eggcellent vid Jack! Are they any other cooking tips you get asked about over and over again? LOL!
tons. Like how to make your own coffee creamer at home
Nice!
Thanks for this video! Just the tip about using a bigger pan was a big help, let alone all the other advice. Thanks again.
Gordon Ramsey wouldn't approve this, he didn't put any seasoning
Joe Beef I don't think Gordon ramsay uses nonstick pan spray lol
Have you put your egg in and lidded the pan with about 2 tbs water to steam it. No flipping it. That's the way I showed my kids to do it.
*yolk explodes*
Thank you I cooked a fried egg for the first time for my hubby 😊😍I liked the two egg tap trick

I have to disagree I work in a breakfast cafe and we use high heat for our egg grill because its quicker.
most cooking positions always ask you to cook an egg before they consider hiring you.
so the secret is to turn off the flame, got it chief!
If you want over easy you can do what my grandpa used to and use bacon drippings (a lot) and baste the top with the drippings or you can cover it with a lid after adding a small splash of water if youre scared to do the flip

how did you make it so the yellow part (yoke i think, im german so not sure) to not break on the flip?
macboogieland the egg whites have to be cooked a few inches around the egg before you can flip and not break the yoke. Removing the pan and tilting it is key. Also let it roll onto the pan instead of dropping hard back into the the pan when you flip the egg.
"I have been trying to fry eggs for over 10 years" how did you even make it past the embryo phase?
Will be trying that in the morning thanks
I make mine on low heat with a clear lid and once the yellow hazes over I remove from pan
That's how I do it for sunny side up. I also add a splash of water because that steams it.
Your voice is so calming!!
Like I said on Facebook, I prefer Sunnyside eggs.
Just made an egg using this method I like the turning off the stove trick, thanks Jack.
slow day at work eh?
yeah. must be slow day for you to be on youtube
Never dis your viewers over this trivial a jibe.
So much more helpful then other videos
YOU ~ ROCK ! !
I cannot afford a new pan. Mine is scratched. I cannot afford plastic utensils. I can't afford non stick spray
You can still use your pan
@@queen.amatallah8492 half of the coating has come off. When I fry an egg it sticks. Even with butter or oil.

Brenda Rigdon non stick pans? There are no such things.

Half way
Don't tap your eggs together to crack them. You don't know which one is going to crack, and it's usually not a clean crack.
don't worry so much, take a risk life is too short.
Just informed my girlfriend that I do indeed know how to fry eggs. Took a 3 minute visit to the bathroom and we scraped by 💪🏼😂
1 cup of bacon grease in a pot, crack an egg, wait until it smokes, enjoy :)
Just one cup? You must be on hard times! Here we slosh the bacon grease on top of the egg so that we don't have to turn it. Of course we re use the bacon grease. We never fry just one egg either. They come in dozens, don't they?

best youtube tutorial on how to fry an egg. Thank you, sir
I like this, roll the egg!!! I'm going to try that; I always picked it up and flipped it, which sometimes would crack open the yoke.
LOL and you needed a video to show you what you were doing was wrong...
-.-

Casey Gibson Remember use a toaster than can fit bread inside it, I can't tell you how many people use the wrong size toaster!
Do you have to use the pan spray for the egg? Or if not will it just stick.
u can use oil
I use butter. It’s good for non stickers nag and it has a good taste.
