Method
- Brown the beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up, until no pink remains, 6 to 8 minutes. Season with salt.
- Make 4 wells in the beef and crack an egg into each.
- Cover the pan, lower the heat to medium and cook 3 to 4 minutes, until the whites are set.
- Serve straight from the pan.
Tips
Leave the beef alone for the first two minutes so it browns instead of steaming.
Storage and reheating
Keeps 3 days in the fridge, though the eggs firm up on reheating.
