McDonald's Egg McMuffin
You will need an empty, clean can with the same diameter as an English muffin (a 6 1/2 ounce tuna can works best
1 English muffin
1 slice Canadian bacon
1 egg
1 slice American cheese
Split the English muffin and brown each face in a hot pan. Set aside. Keep the pan on medium heat. In a frying pan of boiling water, cook the Canadian bacon for 10 minutes. Grease the inside of the can with shortening or coat with a nonstick spray. Place the greased can in the hot pan over medium heat and crack the egg into the center. Break the yolk. Lightly salt the egg. When the surface of the egg begins to firm, cut around the inside of the can with a butter knife to free the edges. Pull the can off the egg; turn the egg over and cook for 1 minute more. Build the sandwich in the following stacking order from the bottom up: bottom English muffin, American cheese, egg, Canadian bacon, top English muffin. Microwave for 15 to 20 seconds on high for uniform heating, if desired.
Tidbits:
For a closer clone, use real American cheese slices, not processed cheese food.
Makes 1 sandwich.
