Steps:
- With a biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass, press a hole in the center of the slice of bread.
- Heat a skillet over medium-low heat and melt in the butter. When the butter is all spread out, place the slice of bread in the skillet and crack the egg straight into the center of the hole.
- Cook until the egg sets a bit on the bottom, 30 to 45 seconds. Sprinkle the egg with salt and pepper. After about a minute, flip it over with a spatula and salt and pepper the other side.
- Move the toast around in the skillet, soaking up all of the glorious butter. Let it cook until the yolk feels soft. Here's the key: golden brown toast, white (not browned/burned) whites, soft unbroken yolk. Perfect.

3 WAYS TO COOK FRIED BREAD - WIKIHOW
A crisp outer surface with a chewy bread center, permeated with the flavors of the meat drippings, butter, or batter it was cooked in. This is the ideal fried bread, and if done correctly, it only takes a few minutes to prepare and less...

Steps:
- Cook the fried meal that accompanies the bread (optional). Fried bread is almost always eaten with one or more other fried foods, as part of an English breakfast. This often includes eggs, English bacon, sausage, sliced tomatoes, mushrooms, and baked beans. Fry them all in the same pan before you start your bread. If cooking all of the above, start the sausages first, the mushrooms a couple minutes later, then the other ingredients a few minutes later. Finish with the fried eggs.
- Add more fat or oil (optional). Depending on how much meat and butter you used in the fry-up, you might already have enough fat in the pan. But let's be honest: caloric introspection has no place when frying bread. Add a small knob of butter, a splash of flavorful vegetable oil or, more traditionally, bacon drippings or lard.
- Heat the oil. Turn the stove on medium-high until the oil shimmers and gives off heat. A hot pan will keep the bread crisp, instead of weighed down by soggy grease.
- Add sliced bread to the pan. Slightly stale white bread is perfect, as the dry slice will soak up the flavorful oil more quickly. Save that fresh loaf of whole grain for the people who want toast instead. Slice the bread into triangles if you have a small pan.
- Spice it up (optional). A small sprinkle of salt and a quick turn of the pepper mill will add some flavor, but this isn't mandatory. Cayenne pepper is another option for people who enjoy spice with their breakfast.
- Cook for a few seconds or until golden brown. If the pan is hot and oily enough, you'll only need a few seconds on each side to make the bread crisp, golden brown, and full of the flavors of the fried meal. If your pan was too cold and not sizzling, you may need to fry the bread for 15-30 seconds, but pull it out before it gets too soggy.
EGG IN A HOLE

Steps:
- Melt the bacon grease in a non-stick pan over low heat.
- Cut a 1 1/2 to 2-inch hole from the center of the bread slice; lay in the hot skillet. When the side facing down is lightly toasted, about 2 minutes, flip and crack the egg into the hole; season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook until the egg is cooked and mostly firm. Flip again and cook 1 minute more to assure doneness on both sides. Serve immediately.

FRIED BREAD AND EGGS
We eat this at dinner, but it can be a breakfast item, too. We never had a name for it, so we just call it fried bread and eggs. It sounds strange to soak the bread in water, but it doesn't come out right if you don't.

FRIED BREAD TWO WAYS

Time 2h
Yield 30 to 40 fried dough balls
Number Of Ingredients 13
Steps:
- Add the yeast, granulated sugar, salt and 3 cups of the flour to the bowl of a stand mixer. Whisk to combine and to break up any lumps of flour. Add the water and use a spatula to begin to mix the ingredients. Add the melted butter and the remaining 3 cups of flour and mix again until a very shaggy dough forms. Attach the bowl to the mixer fitted with the dough hook. Knead the dough on medium-low until all the dough has pulled away from the sides of the bowl and is elastic and soft to the touch, about 7 minutes.
- Remove the dough from the mixer and divide into 2 pieces. Add one half back to the mixer bowl and add the other half to a large glass bowl. Pour 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the dough in the glass bowl; turn it once to coat and cover it with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel.
- Add the rosemary to the dough in the mixer. Turn the mixer on and knead until the rosemary is evenly incorporated, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the dough from the mixer and place it in a separate large glass bowl. Drizzle it with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil; turn it once to coat and cover it with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel. Allow both doughs to proof in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
- After the dough has doubled in size, fill a large Dutch oven, fitted with a deep-fry thermometer, with about 2 inches of vegetable oil and heat to 360 degrees F. Line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper and two rimmed baking sheets with wire racks. Set aside.
- To assemble the Parmesan-rosemary dough balls, use your thumb and index finger to pinch off about 2 tablespoons of dough. Place a cube of Parmesan in the center and close the dough around it, pinching the seam to seal it. Place it seam side down on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Continue the process with the remaining rosemary dough and Parmesan. Set aside the finished dough balls.
- To assemble the jam-filled dough balls, use your thumb and index finger to pinch off 2 to 3 tablespoons of dough. Flatten the dough slightly, then spoon about 1/2 teaspoon of the jam into the center of the dough. Carefully pull the edges of dough up and over the jam, pinching the seam to seal it, making sure to leave no jam exposed. Place it seam side down on the second parchment-lined baking sheet. Continue the process with the remaining dough and jam.
- When the oil is at 360 degrees F, carefully lower 5 to 6 Parmesan-rosemary dough balls into the hot oil. Fry, turning as needed until golden brown on all sides, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to a wire rack-lined baking sheet. Immediately sprinkle with salt. Fry the remaining Parmesan-rosemary dough balls, allowing the oil to come back up to temperature before adding another batch. Serve immediately or keep warm in a low oven for 20 to 30 minutes. Top with freshly grated Parmesan before serving.
- To fry the jam-filled dough, carefully lower 5 to 6 dough balls into the hot oil Fry, turning as needed until golden brown on all sides, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to the second wire rack-lined baking sheet. Fry the remaining jam-filled dough balls, allowing the oil to come back up to temperature before adding another batch. Serve immediately or keep warm in a low oven for 20 to 30 minutes. Top with confectioners' sugar before serving.

Steps:
- Crack the eggs into a bowl and lightly beat with a fork. Put the flour in another bowl, and add the salt and pepper. In the third bowl, put the bread crumbs.
- Dip a piece of chicken in the flour, covering both sides. Gently shake off any excess. Dip the floured chicken in the egg and let the extra drip off. Then lay it in the bread crumbs, and scoop some over to cover the top. Press down gently all over, then lift from the bowl and set on a plate. Do that for all the chicken.
- Melt the butter in a large pan over medium heat, and when the white foam floats to the top, use a spoon to skim it off. Then put in the chicken and cook for about 7 minutes on each side, or until the crumbs are nicely browned. (Fish will take less time.) Use a spatula to turn the chicken over, and cook 5 more minutes or so. Serve with lemon wedges.
