I just got around to trying this, and it was quite yummy, but I have a question…are the onions supposed to get kind of crispy, or did I overcook them? I wonder if I had my heat up a bit too high, because the white wasn’t looking set but the yolks were getting too cooked…and I used fresh mozzarella, left over from some caprise the other night. It didn’t melt as well as your cheese, but it was darned good anyway!

My onions were crispy, and I liked them that way, but I was wondering if that’s how YOU eat them.

Well of course it depends how you like them, so if you like ‘em crunchy, go for it! I like them slightly less cooked than crunchy, so yes I probably cook them at a lower heat than you did.

If you still want that heat up but want your white cooked more, cover the pan with a lid for the last minute or two

I just thought that I’d tell you that your recipe was used to today in Cape Town by two families, Germany by one, Switzerland by two and Australia by one.

Its one of the best I’ve had and your blog is super great!

Congrats!

Looks and sounds delicious! And here too—hot, hot, hot—lots of sweating going on.

Hi Michelle,

I haven’t commented in a long time. Just had to say that I am sans kids this evening and your fried eggs will go perfect with the steak I had planned. An upscale version of steak and eggs. It looks simple and yummy!

Ciao Bobbie! Glad to see you and also hear of your steak and eggs menu…YUM!

Have I mentioned how much I hate HTML tags?

Sadly, I thought I had fixed that this morning by closing the tag, but oh no, it was more complicated than that. Should’ve been more observant.

P.S. I hate them too.

I can’t remember the last day I didn’t sweat. And I am officially knuckling under on the al/alla thing. P and Just Ro have convinced me…

Glad we got *that* figured out. I’ll be sure to tell P as he just loves arcane grammar rules

I think I’m going to have to run to the store later for some red onions! YUM those look good! What kind of cheese do you use? You say Kraft, but is it cheddar, or American, or swiss, or whatever suits the mood?

I like to heat up a pan of black beans, add some salsa, and then crack an egg in the middle of that gloppy mess and let it cook. My own version of Huevos Rancerhos, and totally yummy.

I use the processed slices, so I guess that’s American. Here in Italy they are just called “sottilette” and nothing melts better

I’ve been off eggs for a while because I had a run-in with one that was older than he claimed, but I miss them so much. I even thought about getting a couple of chickens so I’d know the vintage of my breakfast, but there are so many cats in the neighborhood that I think it would be cruel to all concerned. For the time being, I’ll just look at the picture in this post and make Homer Simpson noises.

I think it’s illegal for an egg to lie about its age…can you sue?!
