Heat a pan to medium heat.

Melt a good spoonful of butter on the pan.

Carefully crack one or more eggs into a small bowl. 

Carefully pour the egg from the bowl onto the pan. Repeat the process if you are frying multiple eggs.

Allow the egg to set without touching the pan. 

Fry the eggs for 2-4 minutes depending on how well-done you like them.

Remove the pan from the heat and let the eggs rest on the pan for about a minute.

Season the eggs with salt and plenty of freshly ground pepper.

Serve immediately!
