Gradually whisk in the whole milk, a little at a time, ensuring no lumps form. Continue whisking as the gravy heats and thickens. Once smooth, stir in the nutmeg, freshly ground black pepper, paprika, and salt. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the gravy reaches a creamy, desired consistency, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

In a large frying pan, melt the 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Carefully crack the 4 large eggs into the pan, being careful not to break the yolks. Cook sunny-side up until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 3-4 minutes. Season lightly with salt and pepper, if desired.
