"All we do is we just throw them on the grill and we just arrange them neatly, put a little water in there, and then cook them," @essentialmcdonalds says. "They come up, we just scoop them into a tray and that’s it for the folded egg."
When the video switches to show how the round eggs are made, the clip shows a tray of uncooked eggs beside the grill.

Once all the rings are filled with eggs, the TikTok user breaks all the yolks.
"We pop all the yolks, pour some water in the top so it steams the yolks and the egg," the TikTok user says in the clip. "We pull them out of the ring molds and scoop them up with the same egg tool."
