THE PERFECT POACHED EGG

I adored poached eggs. I think they are the key to a perfect breakfast. They need to be poached soft, as it creates a creamy centre that oozes out as soon as your fork pierces the skin, there could be no better breakfast egg in my mind!


The only problem, they can take so long to cook by the time you boil the water, create a vortex and swirl in the egg perfectly. Such a commitment and sometimes quite tricky. I have the best "cheaters" way to poach an egg in 50 seconds. No more waiting for your poached eggs on Sunday morning when you order eggs benny, you can now enjoy them daily at home!


The How To on the 50 second poached egg:

Ingredients:
- 1 egg
- 1 dash (tbsp) of water
- 1 dash (tbsp) of white vinegar
- 1 bowl
- 1 small plate

Directions:
- Crack egg into a microwaveable bowl.
- Pour in water and vinegar
- Place a microwaveable plate on top and put into the microwave
- Microwave on high for 50-60 seconds depending on how soft you like your egg
- Remove and serve immediately !
