Buttered Eggs

Buttered Eggs

Simple buttered eggs, cooked in a pan until the whites are firm. Served plain or with sautéed tomatoes.

Ingredients

  • 2 Eggs
  • 2 tablespoons Butter (Or more, as needed)
  • 1 large Tomatoes (Optional, for serving with tomatoes)
  • 1 pinch Salt (To taste, for tomatoes)
  • 1 pinch Black pepper (To taste, for tomatoes)
  • 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour (For dredging tomatoes)

Instructions

  1. 1Heat a non-stick omelet pan or skillet over medium heat.
  2. 2Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the hot pan. Once melted, gently crack an egg into the pan. Cook until the white is firm, about 2-3 minutes. Turn the egg over once and cook for another minute or until the yolk is cooked to your liking. Add more butter as needed to prevent sticking.
  3. 3If using tomatoes, cut them into 1/3-inch slices. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Dredge each slice lightly with flour.
  4. 4In the same pan (or a separate pan), melt the remaining tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Sauté the floured tomato slices until lightly browned on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  5. 5Serve the buttered eggs immediately. If using tomatoes, serve a buttered egg on top of each slice of sautéed tomato.
