Tips:

How to fry smooth eggs?

A: When the pan is heated, add a little oil and crack the eggs in. When the eggs are semi-solidified, sprinkle a few drops of hot water around them and fry them over a low heat. When the yolk is 70% cooked, it is ready to be served. The eggs fried in this way are even and complete, use less oil and are bright white. When the eggs are 70% cooked, the yolk tastes more eggy and tender, and the egg white is not mushy.

How to save oil when frying steamed bread slices?

A: Before frying the steamed bread slices, prepare a bowl of cold water. Soak the steamed bread slices in water before frying them. Since the steamed bread slices have absorbed water, only water is consumed during frying, so very little oil is consumed. The steamed bread slices fried in this way are golden in color, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, which is delicious and saves oil. But it should be noted that you should soak each slice after frying it, and do not soak it in water for too long to avoid it breaking.
