NIF'S EGG IN A CUP
I can't begin to count how many times I had this as a child and served it to my kids! It's easy and very tasty and we still enjoy it. This was our 'fancy' name (ha ha) for it but you may have your own version. In response to a recipe review, I always use large eggs, so the boiling time may be less for smaller eggs. 3 minutes should still be the minimum amount of time though. Enjoy!

Steps:
- With a spoon, gently place the eggs in boiling water. Boil for 4 minutes and place eggs in egg cups. Immediately crack top of egg off with a knife, salt and pepper to taste. If you let the eggs sit, they will continue to cook.
- While eggs are boiling, toast the bread and spread with butter. Cut toast into strips - I try for 5. Dip the toast strips into the runny yolk - YUM!
- After the yolk is gone, you can scoop out the white with a spoon and eat that as well.

Steps:
- In a frying pan, heat enough water to cover the egg(s) to a low boil. Add salt.
- Crack an egg into a small bowl. Quickly dip bowl into the water. Slide the raw egg into the water. Immediately slide the other egg into the water in the same fashion.
- TURN OFF HEAT but leave on burner! Cover pan with lid - DO NOT UNCOVER and let sit for 4 to 6 minutes. You can uncover to check them, starting at 4 minutes. You'll know they're done if the white is not really jiggly.
- Using a slotted spoon, gently place eggs on a tea towel. If you use scented detergents or fabric softeners on your towels, do not use them. Instead, slide egg(s) onto good quality paper towels, so the towel doesn't fall apart. Let sit for a few seconds to drain the water.
- Place eggs on to toast, a slice of tomato, steamed spinach and/or a piece of low fat cheese.

Steps:
- Put eggs in a bowl and mash them up with the back of a fork. Add mayo and dill and mix everything together. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Put in a sandwich with crisp lettuce and cucumber or place a scoop on top of your salad.
Tips:
- Choosing the Right Egg: Select fresh, large eggs that are free of cracks or blemishes. Using older eggs may result in a less fluffy texture.
- Whisking the Egg: Whisk the egg vigorously until it is light and fluffy. This incorporates air into the egg, creating a more delicate and airy texture when cooked.
- Seasoning the Egg: Add salt and pepper, or other desired seasonings, to taste. Seasoning the egg before cooking enhances its flavor.
- Using a Ramekin or Mug: Choose a ramekin or mug that is microwave-safe and has a capacity of at least 6 ounces. The egg will expand as it cooks, so it's important to have enough space to prevent overflow.
- Cooking Time: The cooking time will vary depending on the мощность микроволновой печи и желаемой степени готовности яйца. Start with a shorter cooking time and adjust as needed until the egg reaches your desired consistency.
- Adding Mix-Ins: Feel free to add mix-ins such as cheese, cooked bacon, diced vegetables, or herbs to the egg before cooking. This personalizes the dish and adds extra flavor and texture.
- Garnishing the Egg: After cooking, garnish the egg with chopped chives, paprika, or a sprinkle of salt and pepper for an appealing presentation.
