Making the perfect fried eggs can be quite a challenge. You have to be careful not to let the yolk spill while frying. Fortunately, there is a simple way to prevent this.

Fried eggs are a real hit not only for breakfast but also for lunch. In spring, Canadians like to add them to new potatoes. But how do you prepare them so the yolk flows out when cut? An Instagram user known as @tarawoodcox11 decided to share her technique with her followers.

Fried egg with a flowing yolk? The influencer revealed her secret

Sometimes, preparing the perfect fried egg requires considerable effort. We try various methods, which do not always lead to the desired outcome. However, making a dish that fully meets our expectations takes very little.

The influencer @tarawoodcox11 shared that after carefully adding the yolks to the already set whites, she pours a bit of water (around a tablespoon) into the pan and then covers it with a lid. After about 30-40 seconds, you plate everything and enjoy.

What to pair with a fried egg?

Fried eggs are incredibly versatile. Some people enjoy them for breakfast, topped with avocado, cheese, or bacon. They're also a fantastic addition to burgers.

For lunch, they pair well with potatoes or rice. Some incorporate them into vegetable casseroles, creating a delicious and nutritious dish.

However, it's worth noting that a runny yolk can also be achieved in other ways. Those who prefer it might enjoy soft-boiled or poached eggs, which should be cooked in boiling water for about 2 minutes before being removed with a slotted spoon or sieve.
