Step 1
Heat butter until melted; add eggs, fry until white is starting to set.
Step 2
Salt and pepper to taste.
Step 3
Add water and cover immediately; some people add less water but I like a little more. The steam will cook the top of eggs; it takes just a minute or so, depending on how well done you like your eggs. Hard will be just like hard boiled eggs, that yellow color.
Step 4
I serve these with toast and fried potatoes, just like over easy eggs.
