OFFICE LUNCH: Poached Eggs
Elly Clapin
Poached Eggs with Whatever-You-Fancy
Ingredients
2 x Eggs
Water
Seasoning
All your favourite trimmings
Method
– Put some water in a mug – 1/3 to 1/2 full should do the trick
– Crack egg gently into the mug, making sure it’s covered by the water
– Place in microwave for 2 minutes
– But not REALLY 2 minutes – you’ll need to stand by and listen, and take it out as soon as you hear a popping noise (this should take between 1 and 2 minutes)
– Gently remove egg from water with a makeshift slotted spoon, otherwise known as a fork
– Add lots of salt and pepper and tabasco
– Don’t forget to take pictures and brag that you made cafe-calibre poached eggs in a microwave
We served our eggs today with avocado, baby spinach, tomato and toast – but we wish we’d had some smoked salmon, too.
Don’t forget to floss –
Marty and Elly
