Notes

POACHED EGGS - TOP TIP:
Use a small saucepan simmering with boiling water. Carefully lower the eggs in, in their shell, for 10 seconds. Remove quickly with a slotted spoon. Stir the water around in one direction until its all smoothly spinning around. Gently crack the eggs in one at a time. Set the timer for 2 minutes. The eggs should float to the top of the water when ready. Remove with a slotted spoon.
