Fried egg with asparagus and mushrooms
Paul Foster II
Brunch 20 min Easy
Although it is often said 'Anyone can fry an egg', it is actually not that easy to make the perfect fried egg. Too short and the yolk might be perfect but the white is snotty. Too long and the yolk is dry and the white too crispy. Paul shows you how to fry the perfect egg.

Christian Lilley Perez

For many chefs, a French-style omelet is a test of true skill. Browning it is a shame. The shape should be as tight as a cigar. And the center must be soft-scrambled. This requires some real acrobatics. Luckily Spaniards came up with the best work-around—and it’s called tortilla vaga. Christian prepares his tortilla with some lovely cod and an oily green sauce.
