Haven't you got a toaster Darren, 1 min for egg 5 mins for toast!😂😂
Wow ...thanks Darren for showing me this tip , love poached eggs but hate cleaning the saucepan after, can't wait to try it 👍
🙏🏼🙂👍🏼
That's how I will be doing my poached eggs from now on thank you for sharing Darren xxx
Between the air fryer method which involves oil, water, 8 or 9 minutes cooking time,scrubbing the baked on oil after you have eaten your poached egg!!! The microwave method is the way to go, been doing this for years, thumbs up Darren👍
small to medium coffee cup will do! Room temp water at 50-75% fill, ....put in the egg. Microwave on 40-50 seconds. Wallah!!! Perfect poached egg. Put on toast, over rice, eggs Benedict, on a stew, meat, hamburger, etc. Perfection. Thank you so much!
Love these nifty and healthy tips. Especially when poached eggs happen to be one of my favourite things either for brekkie or lunch, or to top and drizzle through a crisp and fresh green leafy bacon lardon salad! SO simple, but Oh My! Thank you :)
Nice one Darren, I have poached eggs on toast for breakfast everyday love it . That egg looked spot on .👍🇬🇧👍
I've been poaching eggs this way for a while but mine have been kind of hit or miss, you kinda have a formula of 1\2 cup water, 1-minute perfect egg. I like the way everyone is busting your chops about no toaster, all in good fun, I'm sure. Looking forward to many more cooking tips, always looking for quicker ways to cut down meal prep, Thanks
Yep, I can vouch for this👍 Coffee mug, pinch of salt and pepper, coupla drops vinegar, 3/4 fill with boiling water, crack in egg, 60 secs in 800w microdiddle....perfect poached eggs with runny yolks...guaranteed!
90 seconds for two mugs/two eggs.
Sounds great!
@@DarrenJohn Works a treat every single time, mate👍
Measuring cups tend to be made of either plastic or steel. Neither of which should go in the microwave. You can just use a ceramic coffee mug and it works the same.
I do scrambled eggs in the microwave. Just put the eggs in a cup, whisk them up, 30 seconds take out give it another whisk and put in for another 10 seconds or so (depending on your microwave) 🥚🥚🥚👍
That poached egg Darren looks so yummy, I love poached eggs your right they are healthy and have protein 👍🤗❤️
Hi Darren I'll maybe try it one day,so so many different ways to poach an egg,I've tried the ones you don't use water smear butter on ceramic cup put lid on then microwave its either under done or explodes in the experimental stage till you nail it,even depends on size of your egg.
This is really helpful.I have avoided poached eggs because of hassle and over cooking them. Will definitely try this 👍
Hope you enjoy
Thats how my nan used to do them for me when i was young ❤
Darren John - I spent weeks messing up poached eggs until the point that I gave up. Then i saw your video ! You saved me from the other side of the pond. Thanks. I’m now a hero again in my wife’s eyes ( she was ready to leave me over my wimpy poached eggs ).
Glad I could help!
A brilliant way to poach an egg, I tried it this morning at 1 minute the egg was only slightly runny. Tomorrow I will try 50 seconds. Thanks again.
Nice one Steve
No butter on the toast? You're yolking?
Brilliant, so quick and no mess.
I remember asking my son to boil me 2 eggs a couple of years ago as I needed protein. I told him what to do but when he brought them to me they were just slush. He’d boiled a kettle and poured it into the saucepan where the eggs were and after 4 minutes or so he assumed that was it. That was his first attempt at cooking, thankfully he’s got so much better although he really doesn’t enjoy it. He gave me a good laugh though
In 1982 my mum died unexpectably. My two brothers lived abroad and my sister had two young kids. I came up to dad's house from university with little cooking skills. Went to the deep freeze, found a bag of something. Turned out it was brains. I grilled the F out of them for myself and dad. On eating them I had the presence of mind to comment, "well that's the second thing we've burned today.''😳
Most of ‘em (my son is pushing 30 & he’s improved no end😉) live & learn, thankfully 🙏🏻 I do recall some “interesting attempts”, shall we say!
No butter on the toast? Did the cow die?
@@MikePaton-Williams-yv9qo 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I’d love to be able to do poached eggs like the pros do, looking all wispy etc.. but a decent microwave one is great. Just add some butter to the toast, and another ten or twenty seconds in the microwave would be ideal!
Darren i have just found your great channel and subscribed, i am 62 years old and every day is an education. Just made myself a perfect poached egg on seeded bread and what can i say. Fantastically easy and done to perfection mate. Going to look at more of your vids,take care fella😉
Top man, welcome aboard
Thanks. I get up at 4am for work every weekday and for me this is a perfect quick breakfast.
Perfect!
Nice one 👍👍👍
Excellent. I love poached eggs. I'm definitely giving this a try.
You can make poached eggs in a drip coffee maker just run the water pull out the filter with the eggs when they’re done and dump out the water
Thank you Darren, so easy to do and the egg keeps a good shape!
First time ever that I had poached eggs! Simple and easy!
Thanks for the tip!
You are so welcome!
Poached eggs on toast, mmmm....😋. I want some right now!..😁
I love poached eggs,you have so many options with eggs and all taste so different
That’ll do for me, a perfectly done poached egg. My attempts over the years have been disastrous- so I gave up trying and eating them poached.
Thank you for the tip 👌
You can do it!
Brilliant Darren. Definitely be giving it a go. Poached eggs are my all time favourite breakfast. Looked lovely! 🥰☀️🥰xxx
1 minute - it really works
£3 to cook the toast....
Thats how I will be doing my poached eggs thank you for sharing Darren it is so easy.
I’m so gonna try that in the morning now. Thank you Darren. Have a lovely evening. ❤
Awesome 🙏🏼🙂
I've been poaching eggs in tea mugs for years. You just rub a bit of olive oil on the inside to avoid any sticking. Usually put it on a lower setting for around 20 seconds. If you go full power you will end up with a hard yolk in a few seconds.
Even better, use the exact method you have just described but close the cling film into a little wrapper and drop it into a small pan of Boiling Water. Two mins later, lift out, cut the top off the cling film and pour your egg onto your Toast. Perfect every time. You can even do them in advance and reheat them in a cup of Hot Water 👍👍
@@stephensmith4480 Thats too Jamie Oliver for my liking. 😂😂😂😂
That’s a perfect poached egg.I will have it on Saturday morning.Thanks Darren.
Enjoy!
I've learned something, and I am cross that I didn't know this before! Thanks.
I’ll have to try this DJ thanks for sharing 👍👍
This video blew up, nice one DJ. Hope it continues for you, much deserved.
A poached egg, who knew?
Thanks for sharing Darren John.
Thanks for sharing, it is highly appreciated.
Thanks for sharing your top tip , on poaching eggs. Thanks DJ 🤗
Thank you. I ❤ your method very much😊😊!
Thank you for the Quick Poached Egg!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm going to start doing this!!!
Amazing. Will be making one this morning - thanks DJ for this top tip. x
Hope you enjoy it!
Thank you for sharing darren
this is actually hilarious I can't believe it actually works, all you need to do is boil some water just before the water is properly boiling stir around the edges inside the water create a little current and then crack the egg in
middle
What a brilliant hack! Cheers from a poached egg lover!
Great job! I will try it tomorrow morning!
as always very enjoyable content DJ.
That is the most effort put into toasting a slice of bread that I have ever seen.
You make it look so easy Darren for myself I’m totally hopeless at cooking 🙈 but for sure I’m going to try this ❤
You can do it!
@DarrenJohn good but 1 single egg on 1 dry toast not enough, needs 2 and butter on toast ( don't think I've ever made just one slice of toast, that's just madness 😂
Brilliant...ty Darren
Crack egg in food handy bag with some butter in the corner . Put it in kettle for 2 boils perfect every time
Wow, where did you get those cups from? they look so useful. 10/10 👍👍
Amazon
Looks perfect will try this
'I'm trying,' ...me too buddy, me too. That's exactly the sort of thing I'd have for brekkie. Man after my own heart. Subscribed 👍
Awesome! Thank you!
thank you for this Darren. I love poached eggs but mine never work. This is a brilliant way.
You are very welcome
Absolute Genius Darren!
That looks like a great egg, just how I like them. Definitely going to try that.
Great idea .... off the charts. 👍
Very useful thanks
Had one a hour before bed. Yum-yum!👍Takes longer to toast the bread. 3 minute meal tops!
Wow….nice crunchy egg.
Wow will definitely give that one a go 😊
Nice one Darren. Ironically enough I saw someone else on CZcams do this today but he boiled the water first. So I'll definitely give it a try to see how it works out. Great video. Take care and all the best. 👍.
That's a real kitchen hack thanks mush ❤
Will certainly try this, love a poached egg
Great idea, LOVE eggs cooked in any fashion so will give it a try, however, what setting do you use? I assume very low, otherwise the water will boil.
I do my poached eggs in my omelette maker so I can do 2 together. So easy, a bit of water in each compartment drop the eggs in, close the lid and 2 to 3 minutes later I get the best poached eggs and so easy to clean after.
I have tried the microwave method and mostly its been great but ive had 2 explosions and if that happens it a mighty clean up of all the splattered egg. Great video though, thanks
Cover the eggs Tony
Feck me it works!👍 A word of caution to others, results will vary depending on micro wattage and egg size one minute is your starter mark. If it’s underdone, like my first attempt, just give it 5-10 second blasts til you get there. Mine are perfect at 1:12 but my brother tried it in his and he said the yolk fell out of the white and rolled off the plate🤣
Thats great tip, went to Weatherspoon in Llandudno ( The Palladium), asked for eggs benedict, they say we got no poached eggs😮, They buy them in from Brakes, they had fried eggs😅, no chef there then,
Bin doing it for years your main down there is all that power for a slice of toast ,.😅
I've never made a Poached Egg in my life (81 Years) but I'll be trying that out soon for sure.
Wow! Well done! Its never too late to be an eggy brekkie rebel :)
Fair play to you mate. 👍
Microwave wattage makes a difference on cooking time
Absolutely brilliant but on a Sunday morning in my house there's 5 people all wanting a poached egg on toast at the same time. One at a time this method is great but that's it
I will be trying this out tonight when home from work 🙂
Hope you enjoy
Egg-sactly what I needed! Thanks Darren!
😂👍🏼😂
Cheers Darren haven’t a stove at the moment but have a microwave gonna do this have a good day 😊🙃
Love a poached egg. Yours looked delicious 😋. Hope you don’t mind me asking, where can you buy those cups you used for the egg?. Thankyou for sharing. Enjoy your evening 😊❤️
Start with somewhere like Lakeland or Amazon. They are American measuring cups and usually come in a set of five or so. Don't get metal ones if you're planning some microwave egg magic... Just sayin' ;)
0:35 Is that your pad, dood? Gorgeous!!!
Great video, i'll try it. Every time i've tried to microwave cracked eggs in a bowl they either went perfectly or blew up and coated the microwave in egg. Maybe with them being in water makes all the difference
Thank you Darren!
Yep. I agree. No butter toast. lightly poached egg and black coffee. Love it ! 😊. And low calorie, what’s not to like ?
been doing this since 1983 - also plop a little butter in the water to give the egg that rich taste that can be achieved using poaching cups.
How many years were you in the food business? I'm pulling your chain a bit but didn't you ever learn how to use a knife 😀! Pulling at your toast that way.
I also leave the egg to stand for 10 secs before opening the microwave.
👍good to find your channel
Nice one Darran love poached eggs.
Great idea going to try it this morning. Brilliant.
Hope you enjoy
