PREP TIME: 30 SECONDS

COOK TIME: 1-1.5 MINUTES MAXIMUM

YIELDS: ONE SERVING

INGREDIENTS​

• ⅓ CUP water

• egg

​

STEPS

1. POUR WATER INTO A MICROWAVE-SAFE MUG.

2. CRACK AN EGG INTO THE MUG.

3. COVER THE MUG WITH A PLATE.

4. MICROWAVE ON HIGH (700-900W) FOR 30 SECONDS. TAKE THE MUG OUT TO SEE IF THE EGG WHITE IS SOLID. IF NEEDED, PUT THE MUG BACK IN FOR ANOTHER 30 SECONDS. IT COULD NEED EXTRA 5 SECONDS WITH ALMOST NO WATER WATER IF THERE IS JUST A LITTLE BIT OF UNCOOKED EGG WHITE (BUT THE EGG YOLK BY NOW IS OF THE CONSISTENCY OF A SOFT BOILED EGG SO ONLY MICROWAVE A LITTLE BIT MORE).

5. SCOOP POACHED EGG OUT WITH A SPOON AND SERVE!
