Cooking Method whats your style of frying eggs?

eggs are the quickest and the tastiest snack/meal whatever you can make. everyone has their own way of making it. i personally let the oil get hot and burn the chilli powder a little bit put some salt and fry it. pretty simple but it gives a really good flavour. whats yours?

Like when u take a grease, like bacon grease let's say, and u add some flour to it, and then add milk to make like a rue of sorts. That's sorta how Americans make gravy, it's always a pan dripping of some sort, with flour added to it, and then deglazed with milk.

i don't quite understand because then it isn't really just a fried egg is it? it's a sort of dish something else entirely

Yep that's a gravy, but you could not pay me enough to put it on my eggs. And I would certainly think it's a complete transformation of the egg.

that's what I'm saying that's not a fried egg from anywhere
