First, an egg in a suitable bowl (Corelle), sprinkled with a bit of pepper and salt:
Next, use my Mother's old "Armstrong" type beater:
Then, I simply pop the beaten egg into our microwave:
Then run it on "high" power for 25 seconds; it looks like this, about half-way there. Take a fork and fold the already-cooked part into the uncooked portion: (OK, I see I used a spoon!)
Run it another 25 seconds, stop and take a look. Most likely, depending on the oven's power, it will be pretty well-done, looking like a mini-omelette:
Scoop it out onto a plate, if you like, check bottom, not "runny", done to perfection, note that NO OIL or FAT was used at all.
Cut up into bite-size, or leave whole, enjoy on Rye bread, or however you prefer. No reason why cut-up ham or other cooked meat cannot be included, chopped onion if desired, but that will not be as well-done as you might like, so Onion Powder can be substituted, a tiny shake of Powdered Garlic if you like that, almost endless the tastes which can be done, beat other ingredients in with the egg before cooking.
Like big omelettes? 2 eggs try one-minute, total, add 10 or 20 seconds if not cooked to your liking. 3 eggs, perhaps a 1 minute 30 seconds. Imagine the saving of greasy frypans, or those chemically-bonded coated pans.......fear not the "nuking", it's only good old radio waves, like our bodies have been bombarded with our entire lifetimes!
EDIT: NEVER put a whole egg-yolk (unbeaten, that is) in a microwave: it will explode and mess things up! Nicer note: How about tossing in some fruit before nuking? Blueberries, Raspberries, or a bit of shredded cheese? Yum, yum!
