  2. Crack 1-2 large eggs into the warm water.
  3. Then place the bowl into the microwave.
  4. Microwave your eggs for 2 minutes on full power.
  5. Once cooked quickly remove the eggs, place over toast, and slice into for the perfect yolk. Or leave 3-4 minutes if you would like a well done poached egg.
