Cheesy Fried Egg Recipes

SUNNY'S PERFECT SCRAMBLED CHEESY EGGS

Steps:

• In a large nonstick pan with sloped sides (even a wok shape works), melt the butter over medium-low heat, being careful to not brown the butter. If it begins to bubble, the heat is too high, so lower the heat to cook the eggs properly. (Slow and low like BBQ is the way to go with eggs.)
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, add the eggs and 1 teaspoon cold water. Vigorously whisk until frothy and smooth. Swirl the pan around to coat the butter on the bottom and up the sides. Pour the eggs into the pan and let sit for a few seconds. When the eggs begin to lightly set on the bottom, use the whisk to gently beat the eggs, then allow them to sit for just a few seconds between beating them again. Curds will begin to form and increase throughout the cooking time. Repeat this process of whisking then resting the eggs for a few seconds until about 50 percent of the eggs are set and the rest are still wet. At this point, sprinkle the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper and continue to whisk and rest alternately. Once the eggs are 75 percent done, add the cheese and from this moment, continue to whisk the eggs until done. This entire process from pouring in the eggs to them being finished should take 8 to 12 minutes; this isn't a race, only a journey to the best scrambled eggs ever. Remove from the heat and continue to scramble in the last seconds. Serve warm.

CHEESY GRITS WITH FRIED EGGS AND VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Combine 3 1/2 cups water, the milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Slowly add the grits, whisking constantly. Reduce the heat to low; cook, stirring often, until thickened, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the cheese until melted; season with salt and pepper. Keep warm over very low heat.
• Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the carrots and cook until slightly softened, 2 minutes. Add the sugar snap peas and large scallion pieces; season with salt and toss. Add 2 tablespoons water, cover and simmer until the vegetables are crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the mustard. Transfer to a bowl and cover to keep warm.
• Wipe out the skillet and melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Crack in the eggs; season with salt and pepper. Cook until the whites start setting, about 3 minutes, then cover and cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, 1 to 2 more minutes. Top each serving of grits with a fried egg, the vegetables, parsley, dill and sliced scallion.

FRIED EGG & CHEESE SANDWICH

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a medium-sized non-stick frying pan over medium high heat.
• When it's very hot, crack one egg on one side of the pan and one egg on the other side of the pan.
• Try to keep them from running into each other so that they can be flipped individually.
• CRUCIAL: Poke the yolks with the eggshell (or a fork) so that they run into the whites.
• Sprinkle salt and pepper on the eggs.
• When eggs have set (edges seem firm), flip carefully.
• I usually end up flipping them a few times to make sure the yolk is thoroughly cooked (it's okay if it's a little soft inside but not runny).
• When almost done, top each egg with a piece of cheese and cover with a lid until melty--watch closely.
• Spread mayo on each slice of toast, top with eggs, and put together.

CHEESY FRIED EGG

Steps:

• Place both cheeses in a mixing bowl, and add in the salt and pepper.
• Break the eggs into a separate dish, and add only the whites to the cheese.
• Add the milk to the mixing bowl, and beat until blended.
• Add the baking soda and beat again. Let it rest for 1-2 minutes.
• Place a pan over medium heat and melt the butter.
• When the butter has melted and starts to sizzle, add in the beaten egg whites with cheese and milk.
• Quickly make a little dent in the centre and add the egg yolks.
• Let it cool for a minute (or longer, if you prefer the yolks hard and not runny), adding butter to the edges if need be.
• Serve hot, with buttered toast.

CHEESE FRIED EGGS 3 WAYS

Steps:

• For method 1: Melt butter in your pan, crack the egg into the pan, season with salt and pepper, top with cheese and cover and cook. Once cooked, serve. This should take 2 minutes approx on a low heat.
• For method 2: Add grated cheddar on a non stick pan on a low heat. Let the cheese melt and then crack the egg on top. Season the egg with salt and pepper. Once the cheese has melted and crisped up and the egg cooked through, remove and serve.
• For method 3: Gently beat the egg in a bowl, just enough to break the yolk but not beat it like you do for an omelet. Add some cheese to that and then fry in a pan. Serve.

THE EASIEST EGG FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Crack the eggs into a small bowl and beat them together.
• Heat a skillet with 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, add the beaten eggs and scramble them for about a minute. Transfer the eggs to a dish and turn off the heat.
• Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil into a wok over high heat. Add the onions and cook them for about 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the mixed vegetables and white parts of the scallions and cook for 2 minutes. Season the vegetables with a pinch of salt.
• Add the cooked rice into the pan or wok and cook for several minutes, until the rice is heated through. If there are large clumps of rice, break them apart with the back of your spatula.
• Add the soy sauce, five-spice powder, dash of white pepper (if using) and sesame oil and stir to distribute the seasonings. (See note 6) Add the scrambled eggs and stir to mix again. Garnish with remaining sliced scallions. Serve immediately.

FRIED CHEESE EGG TOAST

Steps:

• Sprinkle Cheddar cheese into a nonstick skillet over medium heat, forming a circular shape. Fry until cheese is bubbling and starts to brown around the edges, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle red pepper flakes over the cheese.
• Crack egg over the center. Poke the tip of your spatula through the egg white until some of it runs out and flattens over the pan. Cook until cheese is browned to your liking and egg white starts to set, 3 to 5 minutes more. Scrape up the sides using your spatula and fold them over the yolk. Continue cooking for a few seconds until egg is securely encased but still runny.
• Transfer onto toast and top with green onions. Break open the yolk and sprinkle salt on top.

CRISPY CHEESY HASH BROWN EGG BAKE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 9x13-inch (23x33-cm) baking dish with non-stick cooking spray
• Peel the potatoes, then shred on the large holes of a box grater. Transfer to a large bowl of water and swirl around to remove excess starch. Drain and rinse, then place the potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze until they're completely dry.
• Add the shredded potatoes to a clean, large bowl with the salt, pepper, garlic powder, cayenne, onion powder, Parmesan cheese, and olive oil. Toss until fully combined.
• Transfer the potato mixture to the baking dish. Spread evenly.
• Bake for 1½ hours, or until the potatoes are tender throughout and golden brown on the top and bottom.
• Press the bottom of a glass into the potato mixture to create 6 evenly spaced wells.
• Shingle slices of cheddar cheese and ham around the wells, then crack an egg into each one.
• Bake for 15 minutes more, or until the cheese melts and the egg whites are set. The egg yolks should still be slightly soft.
• Serve and sprinkle with chives, if desired.
• Enjoy!
