A quick breakfast from Cuban street cooking, the medianoche egg sandwich is made by placing eggs fried in butter inside a soft, slightly sweet medianoche roll. Its short cooking time makes it easy to prepare right before packing it in a lunchbox.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Fry the eggs

5 min

Fry the eggs sunny-side up in half of the butter and season with salt and black pepper.

2

Toast the bread

4 min

Lightly toast the bread slices in the same skillet with the remaining butter.

3

Assemble and serve

4 min

Place the egg between the toasted bread slices and serve hot.

Reminder

Be careful not to break the yolk while frying the egg; keeping it whole inside the sandwich makes for a neater cut. Allergens: contains wheat (gluten), eggs, and dairy (butter).
