- vegetable oil 1 tablespoon
- a pinch of salt
Recipe 🍳
- Place 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil into a pan without turning on the heat.
- Crack the egg into the pan and then turn on the heat.
- As white bubbles begin to rise, sprinkle a pinch of salt and reduce the heat to low.

Cooking tips 💡
- Never cook over high heat, as it causes the proteins to coagulate and makes the texture tough—always use low heat.
- Use fresh eggs to prevent the yolk from breaking and to maintain a beautiful shape.
