Boil some water with a swig of vinegar in. Swirl the water, and keep on swirling, then drop an egg in, cooked within seconds. In other words, an egg 'fried' in water. Very healthy and very yummy (that is what is in egg benedict as well)

There are more modern ways to do it, but I like the old fashioned way

Thank you.....I was being serious (for a change)

My Mom always used to make me poached eggs....and I loved them.....but haven't had one since I left home!! :o
Also never bothered to ask her how she did it........

I don't like fried eggs much so tend to make scrambled eggs if any!!

Don't forget that I am the MASTER chef in our household

It's just that I very rarely make eggs....and when I do it's either scrambled or thrown on the skottel!!! :thumbs:
