Ingredients

• 1 large Eggs
• 1 Bread slices
• 1 tablespoon Butter
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Fresh herbs (optional, such as chives or parsley)

Directions

Step 1

Start by toasting the bread: Use a toaster or toaster oven to toast the bread slice until it is golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes. Set aside.

Step 2

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Swirl the pan gently to coat the bottom with the oil.

Step 3

Crack the egg into a small bowl to ensure there are no shells, then gently pour it into the heated skillet.

Step 4

Allow the egg to cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the egg whites have set and the edges are beginning to brown. If you prefer the yolk more cooked, cover the skillet with a lid to help set the yolk.

Step 5

While the egg is cooking, butter the toasted bread slice using a knife or a small spatula.

Step 6

Once the egg is cooked to your liking, carefully transfer it onto the buttered toast using a spatula.

Step 7

Season the fried egg with salt and black pepper to taste. If desired, sprinkle fresh herbs on top for an added burst of flavor.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious fried egg on toast.
