Deep Fried Egg Recipe

Instructions

1. Boil eggs in a small pot of water for about 3 to 4 minutes until they reach the soft boil stage. Then remove eggs and place them in a bowl of ice water. Let the eggs completely cool in the ice water which should take about 10 or 15 minutes.

2. When cooled, peel the eggs by gently tapping them. There will be one side of the egg that is easier to peel. There should be part of the egg that does not come out of the shell easily. For this part, use a spoon to get inside the shell in order to help remove the egg from the shell. Heat 2 cups of vegetable oil in a small saucepan.

3. While that heats, place the flour, the remaining egg, and breadcrumb in 3 separate bowls.

4. Chop the precooked bacon into small pieces and add to the breadcrumb bowl.

5. Coat each soft-boiled egg in the flour, then coat with the egg. Dump the breadcrumb-bacon mixture onto the egg, trying to get as much of it to stick and coat as possible. Then re-dredge the egg in the yolk and dump more breadcrumbs-bacon onto the egg.

6. Place 1 egg at a time in the hot oil. Turn the egg after about 10 to 20 seconds to brown on all sides. Remove the egg to a paper towel and continue with the rest of the eggs. Serve while warm.
