Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Melt the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat, ensuring it evenly coats the bottom of the pan.
Carefully crack the eggs into the skillet, ensuring the yolks remain intact. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny. If you prefer firmer yolks, cover the skillet with a lid and allow the eggs to cook for an additional minute or two.
While the eggs are cooking, warm the sour cream in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir occasionally to ensure it doesn't scorch or separate.
Once the eggs are cooked to your desired doneness, gently transfer them to a serving plate using a spatula.
Spoon the warmed sour cream over the fried eggs, covering them generously.
Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the dish to taste. Optionally, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of color and flavor.
Serve immediately with crusty bread or toast on the side for dipping and enjoy this comforting Romanian dish!
