When the butter has melted, add two eggs to the pan.

If you like your eggs over easy, using a silicone spatula, gently nudge the eggs if necessary to release your eggs from the pan, and flip your eggs. Cook for 30 seconds on the second side.

I like to cook my eggs sunny side up. So here's a nice tip for getting over easy eggs perfectly every time. Once you add the eggs to the pan, add a tablespoon of water to the eggs, then cover.

This will create steam that will cook the top of the eggs, so there is no need to flip them. After a minute or so, the eggs will be cooked on top. If you have a glass lid, you can give the  skillet a little shake to ensure the tops of the eggs are cooked to your satisfaction.  If your lid is not glass, remove the lid and give the skillet a shake. Replace the lid and cook for a few seconds longer if necessary.

Once your eggs are fully cooked, gently nudge the eggs with a high heat silicone spatula to release them from the pan.

Once the eggs are released from the pan, remove the eggs from your plan and plate them.  That's it! It might take a few tries but it won't take long for frying eggs in cast iron to become second nature.
