How to boil an egg
Ingredients
- 1 medium RSPCA Assured egg at room temperature
Method
- Fill a small saucepan with enough water to submerge the egg completely.
- Bring the water to a boil.
- Carefully slide the egg into the water.
- Adjust the heat to a gentle boil (constant small bubbles breaking the surface).
- For a set white and runny yolk, boil the egg for six minutes.
- For a hard-boiled egg, boil it for nine minutes.
- Remove the egg from the saucepan and place it in cold water to stop the egg from cooking further.
