Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare Your Pan: Melt the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers. (approx. 1 minute)

02

Step

Cook the Egg: Pour the beaten egg into the hot skillet. Allow it to cook undisturbed until the edges begin to set and bubbles form on the surface. (approx. 1 minute)

03

Step

Flip and Finish: Gently flip the egg with a spatula and continue cooking until the yolk reaches your desired level of doneness. (approx. 2-3 minutes for a fully set yolk)

04

Step

Assemble the Dog: Carefully roll or fold the cooked egg to fit the length of the hot dog bun. Place the egg snugly inside the bun.

05

Step

Spice it Up: Add a dash of hot sauce to the egg dog to give it a kick and make it more delicious!

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a sprinkle of shredded cheese or some chopped fresh herbs to the egg while it's cooking.
Feel free to experiment with different types of hot sauce to find your perfect level of heat.
If you don't have hot dog buns on hand, you can use a slice of toast or even a tortilla as a substitute.
For those wanting a healthy alternative, turkey or chicken sausage is an excellent replacement for a hot dog.
