Egg in the Middle Was a Perfect Dinner / myLot

I almost forgot to post about it. Well, actually I did forget since I did not actually post about it. I'm talking about our egg in the middle we had for dinner on Thursday that I had mentioned I was planning to make in another post. It's basically just a piece of bread, buttered on one side, with a hole made in it, that you fry an egg in the middle of. I like my eggs yolky, and so that's how I made them. And on the side we had some sausage links. I like to have a little bit of pancake syrup with my links. Sue me later, but it's damn good eats if you ask me. As not to be wasteful, I always throw the holes in the pan as well and make them into crispy, toasty little rounds. Have you ever had or made egg in the middle before?

I've never made them but have eaten them before. I couldn't manage with the yolky eggs. The sausages and bread rounds look good, though.

When it comes to fried eggs, I always prefer yolky. But I get that's not everyone's cup of tea. Granted, anyone can make their eggs with harder yolks for these if that's what they prefer.

@porwest Mom used to cook fried eggs with runny yolk because that's what she liked. Then she got tired of me cutting into an egg, seeing yolk running on my plate and me throwing the egg away.

I had to tell her every time that I wanted the yolk cooked all the way.

It's very good. Not much different than just making a piece of toast and running it through the yolks, but I like to think this is fancier (in my mind). lol. My grandma used to make this for me all the time when I was a kid.

Sometimes I make them, sunny side up. I made rösti yesterday. It's a traditional Swiss dish made from grated potatoes, pan-fried into a flat, round pancake until it is crispy and golden. I topped with an egg.
