Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

heat a small skillet to low-medium heat for 3-4 minutes.
grease pan with a little fat of choice - i ALWAYS use leftover bacon grease.
turn heat to low.
*optional: use a egg cooking ring to keep your egg in more of a circle.
crack egg to center of pan - holding the yolk in place to keep it in the center.
let it cook for 1-2 minutes to let the white set (at this time, I remove my cooking ring).
pour in a couple tablespoons of water, then add a lid & let cook until a very thin film forms over top for the PERFECT over-easy fried egg.
if you like your yolk cooked more, just cook it a couple minutes longer!
