Fried egg sandwich
A fried egg sandwich is a simple recipe that anyone can make. It's quick to prepare, even on a busy morning, and makes for a nutritious meal. This sandwich combines a savory fried egg, tasty ham, and cheese on fresh bread, with a simple honey mustard sauce for added flavor. It doesn't require any special ingredients, and you can make it with most of the ingredients you have on hand, making it even more practical. Let's get started making this tempting sandwich.
What to bring
1 egg, 2 slices ham, 1 slice cheddar cheese, a drizzle of cooking oil, 2 slices bread
*Sauce recipe: 1 T honey mustard sauce, 2 T mayonnaise, dash of pepper
The creation process
Bake bread: Toast the bread to a golden brown. If you don't have a toaster, heat an ungreased pan over medium heat and toast the bread from front to back. Toasting the bread will give the sandwich a much better overall texture.
Create a source: Whisk together 2 T mayonnaise, 1 T honey mustard, a pinch of black pepper, and mix once more. If using regular mustard, add 1 T honey. This sauce really elevates the flavor of the sandwich and can be used on other sandwiches as well.
Bake eggs and ham: Heat a little cooking oil in a pan, crack the egg yolks and fry them from front to back. The eggs need to be soft so that they blend in between the bread. You can also lightly toast the ham. The grilled ham adds flavor to the sandwich.
Assemble the sandwich: Lay out a large piece of plastic wrap and spread half of the sauce on one side of the bread. Top with the ham, cheese, fried egg, and lettuce, then spread the rest of the bread with the remaining sauce to cover. *When using saran wrap, make sure the sticky side is facing up - this will keep the wrap from unraveling easily and keep the sandwich tight.
Wrap-up: Press down firmly on the bread and pull the edges of the wrap to wrap around the sandwich. Flip it over, cut, and you're done. Wrapping the sandwich in the wrap makes it easier to eat and keeps it clean when you're on the go. The result is the perfect fried egg sandwich.
