How do you fry or scramble eggs on an electric cooker?

Question

I can't stand this electric stovetop! I can't figure out how to get eggs cooked right. Is the burner supposed to be very hot before I put the eggs in? But then how do I keep them from burning up? Two thousand years of cooking tradition was built on the premise of fire, not of electrical currents, induction, microwaves or what have you!

Answer 1

electric takes some geting use to

set on number 3 to 4 --put in your oil or butter let is get hot then put your eggs in then use your spatgla to scrambel till done soft scramble or hard scramble

Answer 2

6 large eggs
6 teaspoons (1 teaspoon for each egg) low-fat milk
3 dashes of salt (1 dash for every two eggs)
1 Tablespoon butter for frying

Heat a large non-stick frying pan to a setting just above medium. A 12-inch pan works well for 6 eggs. Do not add butter yet. We just want get the pan ready.

In large metal or glass mixing bowl, whisk the eggs with the milk and salt. Beat vigorously for 2 minutes.

Alternatively, you can place the eggs, milk and salt in a blender and blend for 20 to 25 seconds. Allow the mixture to set for a couple minutes to let the foam settle.

Melt the butter in the frying pan. As the very last of the butter is liquefying, add the egg mixture.

Do not stir immediately. Wait until the first hint of setting begins. Start the Martha Stewart scrambling technique ("Using a spatula or a flat wooden spoon, push eggs toward center while tilting skillet to distribute runny parts.")

Continue this motion as the eggs continue to set. Break apart large pieces as they form with your spoon or spatula. You will come to a point where the push-to-center technique is no longer cooking runny parts of the egg. Flip over all the eggs. Allow the eggs to cook 15 to 25 seconds longer. Transfer eggs to serving plates. Add salt and pepper to taste.

A note about milk and water: Soy milk works effectively in the recipe. Whole milk lends an overly milky taste to the eggs. No-fat milk and water can both be used in place of the low-fat milk but the creamy texture of the finished product is reduced.

Answer 3

Try using a non stick frying pan and margarine. Margarine doesn't burn like butter. You can also use Pam a spray non calorie non stick spray in a can for cooking. Let it get pretty warm, but not smoking hot. Put your eggs in the pan and put a cover on top so they will cook through, when the eggs have a filmy top and they giggle just a little bit they are done. This would be sunny side up . Remove them with a spatula to your plate.

Answer 4

I usually cook them on medium heat. Let the pan get warm first though.

Answer 5

Medium heat,with the pan warm before you add eggs.
