Dummies Guide to Frying an Egg

Ever since we started baking, Chloe has been very fascinated with eggs. She realised that eggs can be eaten in many ways, in cakes, hard-boiled or scrambled. Today, she wanted to eat an egg, an omelette and she wanted to fry it herself. 'I cook it myself.', smacking her chest and looking at me in the eye proudly. Before I could say anything, she has ran out to the dining hall and pushed a dining chair into the kitchen, so that's it. Chloe in action...

1. We need a Dora bowl, a small fork and an egg. Knock the egg on the kitchen top, not too hard cos the first egg got smashed, and drop it into the Dora bowl.

2. Next, you beat, whip and stir it in all directions. Do a little teh tarik style with your fork and let it dribbles into the bowl. Add a little salt and shake a little pepper and beat it again.

3. Get an adult to pour it into the frying pan. Watch the egg and turn it when it's done on one side. Chloe did a good job on her first try, better than her dad. ;)

4. Voila! It's ready!
