Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare Your Ingredients
Start by keeping everything ready before cooking.
Crack the eggs into a small bowl (optional if you want control while cooking). Keep bacon strips whole and cheese ready for topping.
2. Cook the Bacon First
Place a pan on medium heat and lay the bacon strips flat.
Cook for about 4–6 minutes, flipping occasionally, until they become crispy and golden brown.
Once done, remove and place on a plate with tissue to absorb excess oil.
3. Use the Same Pan for Flavor
Once the bacon is cooked, reduce the heat slightly. If the pan looks too dry, you can add a little butter, but usually bacon fat is enough for flavor.
4. Cook the Eggs (Fried Style)
Crack the eggs directly into the pan.
Cook on medium-low heat so the whites set slowly without burning.
For runny yolk: cook 2–3 minutes
For fully cooked: flip and cook another 1 minute
5. Add Cheese (Optional but Recommended)
Slice avocado into thin pieces or wedges.
This adds healthy fats and balances the plate visually and nutritionally.
6. Add Cheese at the Right Time
Slice avocado into thin pieces or wedges.
This adds healthy fats and balances the plate visually and nutritionally.
7. Final Cooking Step
Cook for another 1–2 minutes until the cheese is fully melted and everything is combined. Turn off the heat to prevent overcooking.
7. Plate Everything Separately
Now assemble your plate like the image:
Place eggs on one side
Add crispy bacon strips next to them
Add avocado slices on the side
Sprinkle a little pepper or chili flakes
8. Serve Immediately
Serve hot while eggs are fresh and bacon is crispy.
This dish tastes best right after cooking.
