Step-by-Step Instructions for Spanish Garlic Eggs
- Start by pounding 2 cloves of garlic with a pinch of sea salt and 2 tablespoons of chopped parsley in a mortar until it forms a paste. Gradually mix in 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, creating a flavorful sauce. Set this aside.
- In a small to medium frying pan, pour in 1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil and place it over medium heat. Allow the oil to heat until shimmering.
- While the oil is heating, thinly slice the remaining 4 cloves of garlic. Aim for uniform slices to ensure even cooking.
- Once the oil is hot, carefully add half of the sliced garlic to the pan. Fry it for about 30-45 seconds until it turns lightly golden.
- With the garlic sizzling, crack 2 cage-free organic eggs directly into the pan. Cook them undisturbed for 1-2 minutes.
- While the eggs are frying, spoon the fragrant sautéed garlic over the whites. Keep an eye on the doneness.
- Gently remove the eggs from the pan, shaking off any excess oil as you transfer them to a serving plate.
- Finally, sprinkle the fried eggs with sea salt and black pepper to taste. Drizzle the prepared parsley-garlic sauce over the top and serve hot.
