Inspired by the nova breakfast show, here's 'how to Poach' the absolute perfect eggs every time. A quick and healthy breakfast, whether its mid-week or for a lazy weekend brunch. Both ways are easy and as good as the other.
During the week I like to cook my eggs in little egg poachers to save time, whilst at work. Simply break an egg into an egg poacher, prick the yolk with a fork and cook in the microwave for just 35 seconds (cooking time will vary depending on oven wattage).
On the weekends when I have more time I like to cook poached eggs the traditional way.
Poached Eggs the traditional way!
Serves 2
the ingredients
4 Eggs, free range
splash of Vinegar, optional
4 slices of good sourdough bread, sliced and toasted
salt and pepper, to serve
lets have some fun
Bring a large pan of water to the boil, reduce to a gentle simmer, add a splash of vinegar if you desire (this helps to set the whites of the egg, immediately). Carefully break an egg into the simmering water. Repeat with remaining eggs. Simmer for 2- 3 minutes (for soft poached). Remove with a slotted spoon, Drain off excess water on absorbent paper and serve.
enjoy!
