If you have a microwavethen 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!

you need to do it for a few seconds at a timechecking 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....

Defothe 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.
