the email said
"Got a bit bored last night while drunk....got a bit peckish...thought hmmm poached egg....decided to make the one using cling film...well the pictures say it all really....Enjoy...the dog did! Carly and Amy"

But I kinda think the pictures say everything really.

I once burnt a jelly, no word of a lie!
Was at a party and there was a 'Crap we forgot to do the jelly for the kids' moment, so I thought I would help. Unfortunately I was a tad merry at that point and I didn't allow the jelly in the hot water to dissolve completely before I added the ice to speed-cool it, so I put it in a pan to re-warm it and hopefully dissolve it properly. It just stuck to the bottom. Hence I burnt a jelly...

True!

Oh dear !
Me and mr rabbitz tried the clingfilm thing on Sunday morn - worked a treat ! We found the trick is to hang on to the top of the sack *ahem* and move it around in the water for all-round cooking.

edit/ oh and butter the inside of the clingfilm first

If you have a microwave
then the best way to poach eggs is to:

a: smear the inside of a mug with a thin film of butter
b: crack an egg into the cup
c: microwave on low power for not very long - until it's done
d: profit!
(mistafeesh bugrit! millenium hand and shrimp - I told 'em!, Wed 13 Jul 2005, 13:34, archived)

I've tried that before
and the yolk either set solid or exploded :(
( rabbitz, Wed 13 Jul 2005, 13:35, archived)

you need to do it for a few seconds at a time
checking each time.

and on as low power as possible.

the results are yummo.

unfortunately, my microwave blew up some time ago after a large cupboard fell off the wall onto it, so I have not had these for quite a while....

Defo
the best way to do it when pished. Egg samwidge in seconds. Constant vigilance required. There is literally a microsecond between the white hardening and the yolk exploding. This period can be extended by making a slight hole in the yolk casing.

Or you could actually poach it, which is the nicest. Soz. Impossible when pshed, though.

*Raises hand: Right here!
Eggs and microwaves don't get on! Tho I'm told U can get one of those odd things that's egg shaped and react to the microwaves to heat up an egg that's been cracked into it. Never tried one tho.
( WiL can take it all!, Wed 13 Jul 2005, 13:40, archived)

I have to admit
... that I tried it at the weekend and it worked perfectly! Best poached egg ever.

fact.
