How to Cheat Over Easy Eggs!

Published 2017-04-06
Basted eggs are used all the time in restaurants and as long as you go low and slow, no one will ever have to know you didn't master the flip! How many times have you tried to make over easy eggs only to break the yolk when you flip it? For the person who loves that jiggly, runny yolk, it's enough to send you to your knees in a heap. Fear not! This video will show you how to make No Flip "Over Easy" Eggs- NO FLIP REQUIRED! But you will have to crack them yolks intact so that's on you but I have faith in you.

    Thank you so much for the video! My family absolutely loved it! It works perfectly every time and it really is so easy. This will be the only way to make them from now on.
  • I have been doing my eggs this way for years, only difference is I use a cast iron skillet. Over the years it has become smoother than Teflon. One of my skillets belonged to my great-grandfather who was a cook on a cattle drive from Missouri to Colorado, on the mountain branch of the Santa Fe Trail. I will be 75 in a few days, so you can just imagine how old the skillet is.

    My grandmother used to just take the spatula and push hot bacon grease onto the top side of egg. Worked great !
  • Perfect how-to cooking video...Straight, no-nonsense delivery, gets into the how-to immediately...Thank you for this professional presentation ...
  • @elaine2043
    Well, This was my first time making any type of egg myself besides Scrambled so since I liked over easy eggs I decided to make these and I think I did good. I accidently cooked the yolk a little but my mom and grandma said for a 12 year old learning to cook I did well for my first time. So thank you for the recipe 💜❤
  • @gerryhand
    This method is basted egg cooking. The best way I like my eggs.
  • @mumenrider862
    works for omelettes too. I actually mix some water into the eggs, put them in a pan over low heat and cover right away. Open it up a couple minutes later and it's cooked on bottom and mostly on top. Add cheese, toppings to half, fold, take off heat and cover for a couple more minutes. Perfect omelette. If you browned the bottom, you're using too high of a heat.

    I learned this method 55 years ago from mom. I've used it since. If you use a skillet large enough(preheat nicely) several eggs can work. I've prepared 12 at the same time in one pan. Cast iron is my go-to skillet, in most cases. Thanks for putting this out there. As stated, the flip can be difficult in the home.
  • @tylorwendt5623
    thank you dear lady, for this. I've been telling my wife for years this would work and she never agrees. til now😀
  • @rxlo1062
    You’re so right, the dreaded flip. So I usually use your method of adding a little water. Works great every time 👍.
  • @leahmaranto6146
    I been making my eggs like that for 25 years, yes they come up perfect every time 😊
  • @TSFew
    i love this thank you. ive been incorporating a lot more water into the cooking processes of a lot of my dishes and this just helps
  • Great technique. I'm definitely trying this tomorrow. Congratulations on producing a straightforward no nonsense video that gets to the point. Excellent!
  • @lgtv765
    I love the background music, soo relaxing while I watch your cooking tips...
  • My grandma did this but she had two hot skillets. As soon as she cracked the eggs into the first skillet, she placed the second super hot skillet over the first like a lid, then lowered the heat on the bottom one. Same result.
  • @robertdowson832
    Yup. That is how my Grandmother showed me 65 plus years ago. Works every time ):)
  • @mythshark409
    Even if the egg yolk breaks when you put it on your plate, you still get the taste and texture. Great video 👍👌👍
  • Tjank you for sharing this... It is the easiest and the most beautiful way
  • @RUBYSSHOES
    I do this, but I fry mine in bacon grease, enough to be able to spoon it over the eggs after they cook covered for the first few minutes. It's the hillbilly way 😊
  • @javyg4336
    All this years and now I know how to cook a perfect over easy egg. Life is funny sometimes 😊
