Fried eggs with honey and mozzarella, the sweet, salty and spicy express breakfast!
vote now
Looking for a change from the classic fried egg? This sweet-and-savory version is simple yet surprising. The eggs are gently cooked in a base of honey and spiced oil, then the mozzarella melts gently to coat the whole... When tasted, everything blends together: the slight spiciness, the sweetness of the honey and the melt-in-the-mouth texture of the cheese. The green onions and sesame seeds add a fresh, slightly crunchy touch ;) This recipe is perfect for breakfast or brunch when you're in the mood for a change from classic scrambled eggs!

Pour the chili oil into the hot pan over low-medium heat. Add honey and spread over entire surface.
Top with mozzarella. Allow to melt slightly, then add the eggs.
Cover for 5 minutes (watch for eggs to cook more quickly, depending on power setting).
Add chopped green onions (or chives).
When the eggs are cooked, fold in half and serve.
Add sesame seeds, a little extra green onion and voilà! It's ready :-)
FAQ ❓
How can I personalize this fried egg recipe?
You can add vegetables such as spinach or tomatoes, or replace the mozzarella with another cheese to suit your tastes.
Can I prepare this recipe in advance?
It's best to prepare it fresh.
What types of hot pepper oil are recommended for this recipe?
You can use chili-flavored olive oil or any other chili-infused oil, depending on your level of tolerance to spiciness. For this recipe, I recommend "Lao Gan Ma Chili" sauce, which goes perfectly with this recipe. You'll find it in Asian grocery stores.
How do I know if the eggs are cooked to perfection?
Eggs should be cooked until the white is firm but the yolk is still slightly runny. I achieved this result in 5 minutes of cooking, but I had set the heat to low/medium, so you may need to keep an eye on them!
What to serve the sweet and sour eggs with?
You can enjoy them with toast or even a fruit salad! If you're looking for more brunch ideas, I've got plenty here!
