Steps:
- Microwave the mug: Put the mug in the microwave and microwave on HIGH power for 30 seconds. NOTE: Start out microwaving the egg for only 30 seconds. Take out the mug, remove the plate or plastic wrap, and peek inside; you want the whites to be opaque, and the yolk to be still on the runny side. If the whites are still clear, return the cover in place and put the mug back in the microwave for another 10 to 60 seconds. To prevent explosions, do not microwave the egg longer than 30 seconds at a time, and don't microwave longer than a total of 1 1/2 minutes. How long it takes to cook the egg to your liking depends primarily on the wattage of your microwave. You'll need to play around a bit. The time can vary a lot!

MICROWAVE POACHED EGGS
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Fill a microwave-safe coffee cup, glass, or microwave-safe liquid measuring cup with 1/2 cup of cold tap water.
- Crack 1 egg into the cup.
- Place a saucer on top of the cup so that it covers the opening completely.
- Microwave on high for 30 seconds and then see if the egg white is cooked through. If not, continue to microwave in 10-second increments. Wait several seconds before removing the lid as steam can escape quickly and powerfully, even after a very short amount of cooking time.
- Repeat with the other egg in a fresh cup. Serve with salt and pepper, and enjoy.

MICROWAVE POACHED EGGS (BON APPETIT MAGAZINE)
This method is as effective as poaching eggs on the stove; but it is a good deal faster, and the cleanup is MUCH easier! I heard about this on "Food for Thought" on NPR last week (one of the hosts mentioned that she had read about this technique in the April issue of Bon Appetit Magazine). I decided to try it-- it works!

Steps:
- Fill a 1-cup (or larger) bowl (or mug) with 1/2 cup of water.
- Add a pinch of salt to the water if you like.
- Crack an egg into the bowl; make sure the egg is completely submerged.
- Cover the top of the bowl with a small plate or saucer.
- Microwave on HIGH power for 1 minute.
- Remove from microwave and check to see if white of the egg is firm.
- If the egg white or the yolk needs more cooking, re-cover the bowl and microwave on HIGH for another 15 seconds.*.
- Using a slotted serving spoon or large fork, carefully transfer the egg to your toast, your plate, etc., and sprinkle with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste.
- *Please note that microwave cooking times will vary.When I make this, I take the egg out after 1 minute on HIGH and flip it over in the bowl, re-cover, and cook on HIGH for another 15 seconds.
Tips:
- Choose the freshest eggs possible. Fresher eggs will poach more evenly and have a better flavor.
- Use a deep, microwave-safe bowl. This will help to prevent the egg from splattering.
- Add a little water to the bowl. This will help to create steam and cook the egg more evenly.
- Cover the bowl with a plate. This will help to trap the steam and cook the egg more quickly.
- Cook the egg on high power for 30 seconds to 1 minute. The cooking time will vary depending on the wattage of your microwave.
- Check the egg after 30 seconds to see if it is cooked to your liking. If it is not, continue to cook it in 15-second intervals until it is done.
- Season the egg with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the poached egg on toast, with your favorite toppings.
