Fried egg sandwich

This was a recipe that I whipped up. Archana loved it. Hope you like it too!

Ingredients:

1 English muffin (I use Trader Joe's Extra Sour Sourdough English muffins)
1 egg
Red onion rings/strips
Tomato slices
Chopped cilantro
Mayo
Tomato ketchup
Sambal oelek (you can get this at Safeway, Cost Plus World Market etc)
Salt & pepper

Directions:

Toast the english muffins.

Fry the egg. Heat a skillet to medium heat and spread some olive oil. Break the egg onto the skillet, keeping the yolk intact. When the top has started to cook and is not too runny, use a spatula carefully to pry the egg off, and flip it over. Cook to the consistency you like - I like mine to be not overdone, and the yolk to be still a little runny.

Spread mayo on both sides of the muffin. Place the fried egg on one slice of muffin. Add some red onion rings/strips and tomato slices to taste. Spinkle some salt and pepper to taste.

One the other slice of muffin, add some chopped cilantro to the spread mayo. Drizzle tomato ketchup and some sambal oelek to taste.

Close the sandwich and cut it in half.

Enjoy!

PS - I don't have any photos, unfortunately. I will update the post when I do have some pictures, later.
