Steps:
- Bring a small pan of water to the boil. Carefully lower in the eggs and simmer for 4 minutes. Turn off the heat and leave the eggs in the water for another 15 seconds before removing with a slotted spoon.
- Meanwhile, toast the bread, butter generously and spread thinly with marmite and slice into fat fingers.
- Place your eggs in an egg cup and provide a teaspoon and a knife.
- Cut the tops off the eggs and eat with the buttery marmite toast soldiers and a little salt.
- Cook's note: if you use eggs at room temperature rather than straight from the fridge, they are less likely to crack in the boiling water.

[email protected]I thought this recipe was just okay. The eggs were cooked well, but the Marmite soldiers were a bit too salty for my taste. I might try this recipe again with less Marmite.
