Eggs Poached

Ingredients	Equipment
eggs oil water salt and pepper	plastic plate egg poacher fork spoon microwave

1 Open up the egg poacher onto a plastic plate. Oil the inside of the egg poacher. Plastic plates don’t get as hot in the microwave.	2 Crack an egg on a hard dish edge to make a break in the shell.
3 Hold the break up until you get the egg over the egg poacher.	4 Use both thumbs to pry the egg shell apart.
5 Puncture the yolk of the egg with a fork.	6 Put a spoonful of water in with the egg.
7 Put the poacher lid on and secure it closed by sliding the knob.	8 Open the microwave door before you lift up the plate. Stabilize the poacher handle or it will tip raw egg out. One egg cook for 1 minute and 10 seconds. Two eggs cook for 1 minute and 25 seconds.
9 Serve onto Toast.	10 Put salt and pepper on top.
