Ingredients

  • Eggs (as many as you like)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Fill a saucepan about 2/3 full with water and bring it to a boil.

  2. 2

    Crack an egg into a bowl. Reduce the heat to medium (you want the water simmering, but not boiling for the best cooked eggs). Give the water in the pot a quick swirl, and gently slide/pour the egg into the simmering water. Repeat with additional eggs. I usually do no more than three eggs at a time.

  3. 3

    Allow the eggs to cook for 3 to 5 minutes – 3 if you like the yolk runny, 4 if you like it partially cooked but still a bit runny, 5 or more if you like those eggs solid!

  4. 4

    Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon, sifting out any excess water, and serve while still hot / warm.
