This is an excellent egg sandwich to enjoy for dinner, two variants, one with fresh bread and the other with toasted bread.
Prep Time 2 minutes
Cook Time 5 minutes
Total Time 7 minutes
Course Lunch, Main Dish
Cuisine American
Servings 1 sandwich

Ingredients
  

  • 2 eggs, chicken or duck
  • 2 slices bread, white, wheat,whole grain, your choice
  • salt and pepper, as desired
  • mayo, as desired
  • butter, as needed
  • 1 slice Cheddar cheese

Instructions
 

  • Heat a small non stick pan on medium heat, many people use a dedicated pan as their 'egg pan', with 1-2 teaspoons of butter. When hot, crack in the eggs and poke the yolks to break them. Season with salt and pepper as desired.
  • Fry the eggs until the bottom is set as well as the top is starting to set, then turn the eggs over. If using a small pan, you may be able to flip the eggs in round shape like the pan. Cook for another 2 minutes or until the whites are no longer runny. If using duck eggs, ensure they are cooked completely through.
  • While the eggs are cooking, place the bread on a plate and spread some mayo on each slice, using as much mayo as you like.
  • If using toasted bread, just toast the slices then spread mayo on each piece of toast.
  • If the eggs are separate when cooked, place one fried egg on a slice of bread or toast. If the eggs cook in a circle like the pan, use the spatula to cut the circle in half, then place one half of that on a slice of bread or toast.
  • Top the egg with a slice of Cheddar cheese.
  • Top the cheese with another fried egg or the other half if you cut the two in half.
  • Top the sandwich with the other slice of bread or toast, mayo side down. Cut the sandwich in half diagonally, serve and enjoy.
