   fry and carefully flip the egg and pepper halfway through for an overeasy egg

Notes

If your red pepper ring is uneven, the egg will creep out the bottom when it is first added. Cut your pepper as evenly as possible. You can also try and press the ring down with a spatula right after the egg is added, to increase contact with pan and prevent the egg from spreading.
