some folks (like my pop) cannot handle runny whites/yolks let alone watching someone eat it that way - and yes, he fits into the 'fuck 'em' category on this one haha
If it is over easy the whites shouldn't be runny.
Sunnyside up eggs gross me out. I love over easy.
I think I saw Gordon Ramsay say a proper fried egg should have solid white, runny yolk and crispy edge. I've never been served that or been able to make it.
Cook for a couple of minutes, don't flip it, put a lid on the pan for a minute or so.
Perhaps if you add butter as your frying the egg and then spoon butter over the whites.
I dunno, I just flip them briefly. You don't get that nice sunnyside up look, but at least the whites are frim and the yolk is runny enough.
Poached isn't bad either if the water is removed well on a bunch of paper towels but wet eggs suck balls.
sopping up runny yolks with toast and hashbrowns is the bonus part of breakfast and tasty as all fuck. I feel bad your dad can never love it like it was meant to be savored.
