Time 10m

Yield 2 eggs, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 eggs (organic or free-run is best because the colour of the yolk is beautiful)
water
1/4 teaspoon sea salt

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.

This recipe is a bit too bland for my taste. I like to add some salt and pepper to the eggs before I poach them.

I'm not a fan of runny yolks, so I cooked the eggs for a little longer than the recipe called for. They were still delicious.

I've never made hollandaise sauce before, but this recipe made it easy. It's so delicious and creamy.

I'm allergic to vinegar. Is there a substitute I can use?

I love that this recipe uses vinegar in the water. It really helps the eggs to hold their shape.

This recipe is too complicated. I don't have time to be standing over the stove for 30 minutes just to make breakfast.

I'm a professional chef and I can tell you that this is a great recipe. The eggs are cooked perfectly and the hollandaise sauce is delicious. I highly recommend it.

I followed the recipe exactly and the eggs came out perfectly. I'm not sure why the other reviewer had such a bad experience.

This recipe was a disaster. The eggs didn't poach properly and the hollandaise sauce was too thick. I won't be making this again.

I'm not a big fan of poached eggs, but I decided to give this recipe a try. I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious the eggs were. The vinegar in the water really made a difference.

This is the best poached egg recipe I've ever tried. The eggs were cooked to perfection and the hollandaise sauce was divine.

I love poached eggs and this recipe is a game changer! The eggs came out perfectly cooked, with a runny yolk and a soft, fluffy white. I'll definitely be making this again and again.
