Hi all. There’s been some discussion elsewhere for cooking eggs in the microwave so I thought I would start a new thread to make it easier to find in future

Microwave Poached Eggs
A small bowl or ramekin or a coffee mug.
A small plate, lid or plastic wrap
1 egg - as fresh as possible
1/2 cup cold water (from the tap)
A lot is going to depend on how powerful your microwave is
Put water into vessel then carefully crack the egg into the water. Cover and microwave for 45 seconds. Wait 15 seconds then carefully uncover.
Remove egg with slotted spoon. Carefully.
NOTE - we keep our eggs in the fridge. If your egg is room temp 30 seconds will probably do.

Hmm. I will give this a try tomorrow. The egg will be super fresh. (Eying the backyard hens....)
