There are few recipes simpler and tastier than some good fried eggs, however making them well or embroidering the fried egg is not a child’s play. We are no longer just talking about the yolk being at its peak, the white well set and also, with a little luck, having the tip.
It is evident that making a fried egg, although it is sometimes said as a cliché, is easier than frying an egg, it is not as simple as it seems. Or not at least do it right, especially when the fried egg sticks to our spatula and suddenly he dismounts halfway between the frying pan and the plate, setting up a candle from the ciborium.
We are no longer talking about the quality of the egg, the quality of the oil or the type of pan where we are going to cook them. Furthermore, we must distinguish between making a fried egg and making a grilled egg, and above all keep in mind that there are certain small details that can ruin the presentation in a matter of seconds.

In any case, if your dilemma is that the fried egg always ends up sticking to the spatula, be it silicone or metal, and ended up crawling on it and crashing against the plate or leaving a few drops of yolk on the pan, we have the solution to all your problems.
