Just slightly with a little salted butter - maybe about a minute on
medium - so the rings get a little limp on the bottom and provide a
better seal so the egg doesn't leak out when you drop them in there.
No matter how good of knife skills you think you have, you will not
cut a perfectly flat ring that will sit perfectly flush to the pan and
leak whites.

Also, the yolks will rarely be centered without assistance. Gently
scoot the yolks towards the center with a spoon or blunt knife for the
first few seconds until the whites set on the bottom. Then the yolk
will stay centered when you take the spoon(s) away You can also do
this with onion rings.
