Eggs Bolinho

🇧🇷 Brazilian

Golden, crackling-crisp fried eggs with a soft interior — impossible to eat just one. About 28 minutes from fridge to table.

Prep 18 min Cook 10 min Serves 4 Easy

Ingredients

  • Vegetable Oilfor deep-frying
  • Fresh Cilantro1 handful
  • Eggs6
  • All-Purpose Flour100 g
  • Breadcrumbs150 g
  • Smoked Paprika1 tsp

Instructions

  1. 1

    Pat the eggs dry and season with the smoked paprika and a little salt.

  2. 2

    Set up a breading line: flour, then beaten egg, then breadcrumbs — press the crumbs on firmly.

  3. 3

    Heat 4-5 cm of oil to 180°C; a breadcrumb dropped in should sizzle straight away.

  4. 4

    Fry the eggs in small batches until deep golden, 3-4 minutes per batch.

  5. 5

    Drain on a rack, never on paper, and serve hot with green onions scattered over.

Chef's tip

Keep the oil at a steady 180°C — too cool and the coating goes greasy.
