A man in restaurant says:

"Two over medium, please"

He hasn't said "over-medium" what!

So what does it mean "over-medium"?

Thanks.

No, it's not "over-medium."

"over" means flip the eggs over (instead of leaving them the way they were cracked, which is "sunny side up")

"medium" is how thoroughly they should be cooked
