Perfect Fried Egg

I think this one is more about a technique than a real recipe, but I share it here as a reminder of how to make a really clean, attractive presentation of a fried egg. I also like this recipe because it creates a thicker egg white than a traditionally fried egg where the egg white gets too thin.

This is also a great way to make multiple fried eggs, using additional egg or pastry rings and a larger size skillet.
