Take a pan-size piece of foil and bend the edges up, so the raw egg doesn’t slide onto the pavement.

]]> 40617 2 49 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/17480/49.jpg Crack the egg Crack an egg or two onto the foil. The sun will reflect off the surface and cook your eggs.

]]> 40618 3 55 Tip If you intend to eat these eggs, you might want to use some butter or oil on the tinfoil so it doesn’t stick—and season your eggs with some salt and pepper.

]]> 40615 4 60 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/17480/60.jpg Be ready to fib The temperature of the sidewalk needs to reach at least 158° Fahrenheit to turn a raw egg solid. Sorry, a light colored sidewalk on it’s own won’t do the trick. You’ll need to cheat just a little.

]]> 40619 5 64 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/17480/64.jpg Use a magnifying glass or mirror To speed up the process, use a magnifying glass or mirror to focus the suns rays onto the foil. Now you’re cooking!

]]> 40620 6 71 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/17480/71.jpg Brag a little After your egg is cooked, tell everyone that it was so hot outside that you were able to fry an egg on the sidewalk. They’ll either think you are most egg-zelent or just egg-zagerating.
