Instructions

  1. Spray a microwave safe bowl with oil. Crack an egg into the bowl and, using the pointed end of a sharp knife, gently pierce the yolk.
  2. Place a microwave safe plate on top of the bowl and put in the microwave. Cook on high for 30 seconds.
  3. Leave for 1 minute and then check the egg. Cook for 15 seconds more then check again. It may need 10 seconds more, depending on how you like your eggs cooked.

Notes

  • Let refrigerated eggs reach room temperature before cooking.
  • Fresh eggs are always best, because they will hold their shape better and give you perfect fried eggs. Place the egg in a bowl of water, and if it sinks, it is fresh. Floating eggs should be thrown away because they are too old.
  • If you are having trouble cracking your egg straight into the bowl, then crack it into a small ramekin first and then pour that into the cup.
  • Don't forget to pierce the egg yolk as this will stop it from breaking.
  • Make sure you cover the bowl with a plate. This stops the steam escaping and keeps the bowl at the temperature needed to cook the egg.
