Or, if you prefer eggs with less fat, use this “fry-poach” method. Melt a little fat in a frypan over low heat—just enough to grease the bottom. Add eggs one at a time, pour in 2 or 3 tablespoons of water, cover pan tightly, and steam until eggs are done. Season before serving.

Note: Use only clean, sound-shelled eggs in this recipe.
