CRISPY PARMESAN EGGS



Crispy Parmesan Eggs image

How can you make runny-yolked fried eggs even better? Give them edges of crisp, salty Parmesan. The addition takes just a few extra minutes and adds an incredible layer to a dish that's already deeply lovable. Make sure to skip preground Parmesan here: You'll want to shred the cheese yourself on the largest holes of your grater. And use a nonstick skillet or well-seasoned cast-iron pan to fry the eggs. They may never come off a regular pan. Eat them alone, lay them over asparagus, or use them to top a sharp, lemony salad. When something's this perfect, it's hard to go wrong however you serve it.

Time 10m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup coarsely grated (not ground) Parmesan
4 eggs
Kosher salt and black pepper

Steps:

  • Brush 1 teaspoon olive oil into a thin layer on the bottom of a 10-inch nonstick or well-seasoned cast-iron skillet and place over medium heat. Sprinkle 1/2 cup Parmesan in an even layer covering the bottom of the pan. Cook for 2 minutes until cheese begins to melt.
  • Crack eggs onto cheese, then cover pan and cook until eggs are starting to set but are not cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Uncover and turn heat to medium-high to finish cooking eggs for another 1 to 2 minutes, until edges are crisp and golden brown. Make sure the cheese doesn't get too brown; if it goes past light golden, turn down heat. To serve, season eggs with salt and pepper to taste.

CRISPY PARMESAN EGGS WITH RADICCHIO AND PEA SALAD



Crispy Parmesan Eggs With Radicchio and Pea Salad image

The true stars of this main course salad are the Parmesan fried eggs, which have lacy, golden edges that are almost fricolike in their crunch. As the runny yolks leak onto the radicchio and vegetables, they mix with the lemony dressing, making the whole salad creamy and rich. It's best to shred the Parmesan yourself, using the largest holes on your grater; the preground stuff is usually too fine. Then be sure to use a nonstick skillet or well-seasoned cast-iron pan to fry the eggs; otherwise, they are liable to glue themselves onto a regular pan. And if you aren't an anchovy fan but still want to add a saline bite, a tablespoon of drained capers also works well.

PARMESAN EGGS



Parmesan Eggs image

Take your morning eggs to the next level by nestling them in a crispy halo of Parmesan. The eggs will cook nicely while the cheese becomes an irresistibly lacy cracker, what Italians call a "frico" or cheese crisp. These eggs are lovely eaten by themselves but even better when served on top of avocado toast, in a breakfast sandwich or perhaps on top of a bed of arugula--the possibilities are endlessly delicious!

Time 10m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 3

1/2 cup shredded Parmesan (about 1.5 ounces; see Cook's Note)
2 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Set aside 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan in an 8-inch ring around the edge of a large nonstick skillet, leaving a 7-inch empty circle in the center. Sprinkle the reserved Parmesan in a line down the center of the circle, dividing it into 2 half-circles. Heat the skillet over medium-low heat.
  • Gently crack an egg into each half-circle and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover the skillet and cook, undisturbed, until the whites are almost set and the cheese has melted, 3 to 4 minutes. Uncover and cook until the cheese is browned but the egg yolks are still runny, 1 to 2 minutes more. Gently slide the eggs onto a serving plate. The cheese will crisp as it cools.
