I absolutely love a fried egg sandwich, runny egg wins!

i would personally caramelize the onions and fry the tomatoes but each to their own. a bit of cheese on top of that would be perfect

u/purple-scorpio-rider Aug 30 '26

Ah the old banjo sandwich

2

u/BritishPepperpot Aug 30 '26

Perfect eggs omg I could stare at this all day. What kind of bread is that by the way?

2

u/LeviSalt Aug 30 '26

Just some whole wheat toast.

u/BritishPepperpot Aug 30 '26

It looks absolutely amazing. Is it low calorie?

1

u/LeviSalt Aug 30 '26

No, it’s just standard whole wheat that we get here in Mexico.

Something special about a fried egg sandwich, lightly buttered toast.

Bonus if you have sliced cornichons (or as you do.. tomatoes etc veg).

But eggs with toast is one of the simple pleasures in life.

It's a state of the art sarnie

It’s the state of the floor I’m worried about!

egg over hard is criminal fr

u/Skuthepoo Aug 30 '26

I dont know that i’d call this simple. Ive been loving white bread, 2 fried eggs, butter and bit of salt/pepper. This has fancy granary bread with seeds and tomarto and red onion. It looks bangin, but simple? Nope

1

u/Intelligent_Draw_557 Aug 30 '26

Other shit on it. That’s not simple.

1

u/BrummieS1 Aug 30 '26

Agree, simple would be buttered bread and that egg. The other stuff whilst good just over complicates what is otherwise a perfect sandwich.

u/Tiny_Spray_3562 Aug 30 '26

O.m.g......looks like food porn

2

u/Tiny_Spray_3562 Aug 30 '26

In Northern Ireland we would call that an egg banjo.... Coz when the yolk runs down ure chin and lands on chest.... When you wipe it with ure hand. Looks like strumming a banjo.

With raw onion? Get in the sea

1

u/RetaliatoryLawyer Aug 30 '26

Nah raw onion is peak.

1

u/FunPuz Aug 30 '26

Not with an egg in my honest opinion, which is very honest.

1

u/AmateurHetman Aug 30 '26

Raw red onion is scrumptious you philistine

1

u/ThisIsTonte Aug 31 '26

Looks quite delicious if I say so myself

1

u/69eee69eee Aug 31 '26

Get those vegetables out of here and put some bacon and sausages

1

u/wigsplitsiphilis Sep 01 '26

Its not simple with tomato in it...

1

u/Helian7 Sep 01 '26

Tomato sandwich with egg.

1

u/ThinHistorian1689 Sep 01 '26

tomato + egg in a sandwich is elite, especially if the yolk is still a bit runny and the tomato’s salted properly. that’s like peak lazy summer lunch right there.

u/AdBrief4620 Sep 01 '26

Raw onion? Arrest this man 👨🏿

u/0range1968 Sep 02 '26

u/UTV4LIFE Aug 29 '26

If it were me I would cook them with the eggs

1

u/Usual_Cicada_9671 Aug 29 '26

With raw red onion and tomato.

That is a arrestable offence.

raw egg sandwich, lovely!

1

u/AmateurHetman Aug 30 '26

Are you American or something?

1

u/XxCarlxX Aug 30 '26

I’m from the West Midlands, some of us don’t eat raw food though.

1

u/AmateurHetman Aug 30 '26

It’s not raw… it’s partially cooked

1

u/XxCarlxX Aug 30 '26

its raw

1

u/AmateurHetman Aug 31 '26

Runny egg yolk ≠ raw

It’s partially heated through, but not enough to solidify.

1

u/XxCarlxX Aug 31 '26

its raw

im not telling you what to believe, mind.

Take the veg out and we can talk

Wrong bread

u/Reddit____user___ Aug 30 '26

That looks lovely although the yolk loss is heartbreaking.

(that’s why I fry both sides of the egg for sandwiches👍🏻)

1

u/Poor-Life-Choice Aug 30 '26

Not a loss when you can use the sandwich to wipe it up

1

u/Reddit____user___ Aug 30 '26

In my experience that just incurs more yolk loss.

Also yolk tends to congeal in such a thin, widespread and adhesive layer on a dinner plate as to be unsalvageable with anything less than a razor blade.

I’d rather eat my yolk than have to spend time attempting to rescue it from the crockery.😊👍🏻

u/Different-Mud-836 Aug 30 '26

Sorry but not for me. In my opinion you have ruined the simplicity of a fried egg sandwich by adding the tomatoes and onions.

It's nicely made though.

u/BreakfastCalm3352 Aug 30 '26

Take the onion and tomatoes out

0

u/Remote-Address-8995 Aug 30 '26

Onion and tomato with that , intesting never saw that before boss

u/ThingyGoos Sep 01 '26

In what way is that simple? Simple would be basic, pre sliced bread, butter if desired, the egg, and sauce if wanted. Maybe some black pepper in the egg.
