sunnyside up ??

Question

Is there a literal translation?

Had a hard time translating in Puerto Rico

A literal translation would make no sense. - 005faa61, MAR 5, 2010

Answer 1

Creo que huevos fritos es la misma cosa.

Huevos estrellados as well. - 005faa61, MAR 5, 2010

I have mine as Huevos estrellados volteados. (Over). - MexGuy, MAR 5, 2010

can not find the meaning of estrellados - diablo613, MAR 6, 2010

huevos estrellados is not correct, have a look at the picture below - 00494d19, MAR 6, 2010

Answer 2

If you ask in Spanish speaking countries for sunny side up , which I found hilarious, by the way you simply have to ask for a fried egg, as the sunny side down stuff, does not exist I had a great time laughing at the dozen types of eggs you could order in NY!!

In Spain you can ask for three forms:

huevos fritos (this is always sunny side up--is this spelled as only one word?)

huevos pasados por agua ----boiled eggs, very unusual, not often eaten

tortilla francesa -----omelette (this can have all kind of ingredients, but the French one, as we call is, is plain)

huevos estrellados: look at the picture, not to be confused with fried eggs

huevos a la flamenca: look at the other picture, I don't know if you can get them like this.

there are some more ideas, but these are the most common to ask for in a restaurant - 00494d19, MAR 6, 2010

huevos pasados por agua is 2-3 mins boiled half rough. huevos cocidos as boiled eggs more than 5 mins. - Zizoun, MAR 6, 2010

And heidi, don't forget our Tortilla Española xDD (potato omelette) - Zizoun, MAR 6, 2010

You asked if "sunny side up" is spelled as one word. Not according to my Gran Diccionario Oxford. See my post on "Mena" for more information. - Janice, MAR 6, 2010

Still have a difficult time in PR and Mexico,when ordering eggs sunny side up.Ordering huevos fritos ,will get you eggs over,.you physically have to explain.Bottom line is I still don't have a phrase abd I don't believe i will for my next trip....LOL - diablo613, MAR 6, 2010

Huevos fritos ...9 out of 10 will get you eggs over - diablo613, MAR 6, 2010
