Try applying very gentle pressure with a finger on top of the egg before moving the egg itself. Try this, pick the skillet up and move the skillet over the bread. Your egg needs to slide out of the skillet and fall on the bread; the egg needs to be cooked medium or firmer. A tad bit of water prevents the egg sticking to the skillet.

But where I find I'm having difficulty is getting the eggs out of the skillet and onto the bread in one piece. I use the largest spatula I have for this task but still the eggs sometimes manage to fall off the spatula between pan and buttered toast or bread, sometimes back into the pan and sometimes on the counter top or stove top. Does anyone have any possible fixes for this problem? I think if I knew a good way to get fried egg from skillet to sandwich I'd make fried egg sandwiches all the time, but I am deterred by my lack of ability to transfer egg to bread or toast or plate or bagel or what have you. Any help would be greatly appreciated, and thank you in advance.
