A Creative Way to Fry an Egg

Over the past few years, the best food tricks we have came from TikTok. TikTok users often show amazing creativity when it comes to preparing old foods in new ways, which is exactly the case with this egg frying method. Let’s see why millions of people have watched the video already.

TikTok user reducedfatmeal often posts food videos and among them are some egg recipes. This one, however, is a bit different as most people don’t make their eggs this way. The method is sometimes called a pocket egg or an envelope egg. Do you already know what we’re talking about?

Check out the video to see what we mean. The chef first cracks an egg above the pan but only lets the whites drop to the pan. The yolk remains in the shell for a while. He then swirls the pan, creating a big thin layer out of the whites, before adding the yolk in the middle.

Now the best part: the sides of the egg white go across the yolk, creating a pocket or an envelope that makes the dish recognizable. Go try it yourself and enjoy a creative breakfast! You can add some green onions and sauce like the video suggests.
