How to fry an egg
Have you ever thought about what is the proper way to fry an egg ?
It looks super simple, but in order to make the perfect egg to take on breakfast is necessary to understand the little details. Simple speaking there're three kinds of eggs : Over easy, over medium and over well. My favorite one is over medium. Over easy IMO is almost raw and over well does not have flavor.
The necessary things to accomplish the goal are : A pan, bowl, butter/oil, the eggs. Steps are below.
1 - Insert the butter over the surface of the pan;
2 - Turn on the stove and let the temperature increase a little bit;
3 - Carefully brake the egg's bark over the bowl. It's very important to not distort the egg yolk, otherwise the end result tends to be an omelet;
4 - Take the bowl to the pan and slowly drop the egg on it;
5 - Cover the pan and wait until you see a tiny white layer above the egg yolk. If this is done it means the egg has achieved over medium.
Remove the pan from the stove and enjoy !

Good work with this text Natasha!
The egg in your photo is what I would call "sunny side up". As I learned the terms to describe fried eggs, the word "over" is only used if the egg is turned over in the pan (yolk side down) to finish cooking. Eggs can be over easy (yolk is still liquid) or over hard (yolk is solid). These are the terms I learned in the USA, other English-speaking areas might use different terms.
Bons estudos!
