I will offer up this as I do not see anything similar in this recipe section.
Encountered this while visiting an older uncle and he picked it up while eating at a diner.
A nice way to make up eggs for breakfast. At the diner he observed the cook making up some fried eggs on the hot grill but with a differance. On a hot grill or larger fry pan place a generous dollop of butter. Once melted and spread around drop your eggs. Not a super hot surface but hot enough to boil the butter a bit and start cooking the eggs. Watch the eggs until the whites are firming up and the film over the yoke is just started to glaze a bit. Salt and pepper to taste. Now the trick is to put a few tablespoon fulls of water onto the hot pan around the eggs. It will start to boil and rush under the eggs lifting them free of the pan. At this moment you place a pot cover over the eggs and leave it alone until they are cooked to your preferred texture.
The eggs are cooked, they are not sticking to the pan and the buttery water has steamed over the top of the eggs creating a sort of half fried and half poached finished product.
Lovely tender and flavorful eggs to add to your meal.
And not greasy if you are inclined to be careful of calories.
