I can't make a decent dunky egg. Please help!!!

What is the secret to a good dunky egg?
(A dunky egg is technically a fried egg over medium)

I either overcook them, break the yolks, or mess em up
in some way. I cooked 12 eggs tonight and only 5 came out ok.
The dogs were VERY happy.

do you need me to come show you how to make a good dunkie egg???


on the griddle

or in a pan

Are you frying those in butter? What temp? Do you flip them? That
third pic looks like a medium done, sunny side up.

Over medium is my favorite and no one can make them just right except me. My husband won't even try to make me a egg! lol I don't want any brown crust or over cook yolk. I want the white cook and the yolk runny. Yum Yum. When I eat out I just tell them scrambled because they never get it right.

small fry pan with lid. med heat. just a sliver of butter put in egg put in maybe a tablespoon of water, put on lid cook maybe 3 minutes, slide out of pan onto plate then dunkie away. If you have to flip just turn over for short time then slide out of pan and enjoy.

That third pic is what my grandpa called blindfolded.

I cook them in butter and while the bottm is cooking I use a spatula to throw hot butter on the tops.

I use oil and a SPOON

Seriously, crack the egg into the hot oil, and I then use the spoon to scoop over the hot oil to cook the top.

I always BURN butter..... oil works much easier for me.... and the spoon is awesome, don't have to mess with trying to flip the egg or move it around or anything....
