Instructions:

To prepare the perfect Sunny Side Up Eggs, begin by pouring the olive oil into an oven-safe skillet. Use a brush to evenly coat the bottom and sides of the skillet with the oil, ensuring the entire surface is lightly greased.

Next, crack each egg into a small bowl, making sure the yolk remains intact. Gently slide the egg into the skillet, one at a time. Repeat the process for the remaining eggs.

Place the skillet in a preheated static oven at 200°C (392°F) and cook the eggs for approximately 6 minutes. This allows the whites to set perfectly while keeping the yolk tender and runny.

Once the eggs are cooked to your liking, carefully remove the skillet from the oven. Season the eggs with a sprinkle of salt flakes and freshly ground black pepper to taste.

Serve immediately, enjoying the rich, golden yolk paired with the crispy edges of the perfectly cooked egg whites. A simple yet delightful dish, perfect for breakfast or a quick meal anytime.
