Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons (finely chopped) Fresh dill
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Ground black pepper
Instructions
Crack the eggs into two small bowls to ensure the yolks stay intact and for easy transfer into the pan.
Finely chop the fresh dill and set it aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter, allowing it to melt and coat the pan evenly.
Once the butter starts to sizzle but before it browns, gently slide the eggs into the skillet. Aim for the yolks staying intact.
Season the eggs with a pinch of salt and ground black pepper.
Sprinkle the chopped dill evenly over the eggs.
Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny. For firmer yolks, extend the cooking time by another 1-2 minutes.
Carefully slide the eggs onto a plate and serve immediately with your choice of toast, salad, or as part of a larger meal.
