Then flip the molds to the other side and crack one chicken egg into each. If the egg white still spills over the edges, let it set on the skillet, then simply remove it with a fork or silicone spatula. While the white is still runny, you can add various ingredients or seasonings: herbs, spices, finely chopped tomato, or sausage.

Step 5
Salt and pepper the sandwiches. Next, you can cover the pan with a lid and cook them over the lowest heat without flipping, if you like the egg to stay visible. Or you can fry for 2 minutes, flip back to the front side, and cook for another minute. Choose whichever method you prefer.
