EASY BOILED EGGS
Cook:5 - 8 MINS
Makes: 4 Boiled Eggs
Ingredients
NO SWEAT SCRAMBLED EGGS
Cook:5 Mins
Ingredients
- 4 Whole Eggs
- Bring your eggs to room temperature before boiling. If the eggs are too cold, the shells may crack during cooking.
- Place the eggs in a saucepan of cold water. Place the pan over medium heat.
- Bring to a gentle simmer, gently stirring the eggs constantly in a clockwise direction. The movement of the water helps to centre the egg yolks.
- Simmer the eggs for 4 minutes for soft-boiled eggs. For semi-firm yolks and hard whites, simmer for 5 minutes. For hard-boiled eggs, simmer for 8 minutes.
- Use a slotted spoon to remove the egg from the water. Transfer to an egg cup and serve immediately.

PERFECTLY POACHED EGGS
Cook:10 Mins
Ingredients
- Salt & Pepper
- 4 Eggs
- 10g butter
- 1 tablespoon milk
- Break four eggs into a bowl and add a pinch of salt (and white or black pepper to taste) and 1 tablespoon of milk. Beat lightly with a fork.
- Heat a small saucepan with a heavy base or a small non-stick pan, add 10 grams of butter and melt on medium heat.
- Pour in the eggs and reduce heat slightly. Using a flat spoon or fork keep the egg moving and turning in the pan so nothing has contact with the hot surface for more than a few seconds
- When it begins to firm but is still slightly runny, remove from the heat. The residual heat in the pan will cook the eggs through

- Reduce heat until water is barely bubbling, then with a large spoon, gently stir the water in a circular motion to create a whirlpool which will draw the egg into the centre of the pan.
- Carefully slide the egg into the water.

TWO EGG OMELETTE
Cook: 5 - 10 Mins
Serves: 1
Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 eggs
- Salt & Pepper
- 5 grams of Butter
- Crack two eggs into a bowl and beat with a fork. Add a grind of black or white pepper and a pinch of salt.
- Heat the entire plan, base and sides. Add 5 grams of butter while pan is on medium/high. Swirl butter around the base and sides of pan. Add the eggs and immediately, with the back of a fork, move the mixture once or twice in a circular motion.
- Turn heat down and sit only half the pan over the heat. If desired, add an omelette filling, to one side of the omelette. Using a plastic spatula flip the cooked half of the egg over the uncooked side.
- Put the whole pan back over the heat and cook for a further minute (less if you like the centre soft and a little runny, or more if you like it firm or cooked through).
- Serve and eat immediately
