I start with the all time favourite soft-boiled egg (or dippy egg): delicious seasoned with salt and pepper and served with buttered soldiers (with a lick of marmite) and a cuppa.
Ingredients:
- Egg(s)
- Water
Method:
1. Place egg(s) in a saucepan and cover with water.
2. Bring to the boil.
3. As soon as the water starts bubbling- start your timer!
4. Large eggs: 4-4.5minutes, Small/Medium eggs: 3.5-4 minutes.
5. Once the timer goes off, turn off the heat and serve.

TOP TIP! If you are unsure whether your egg is cooked properly, take the egg out of the water, carefully crack open the top with a knife and check if the egg white is cooked enough. If it's still a bit runny/transparent, don't worry, simply pop the top back on the egg, wrap the egg tightly in tinfoil and place back in the boiling water for up to a minute.
