I had a huge obsession with edgy bread, I don't have it very often now though. trying to lose weight, it's hardly helpful haha

I hate eggs, I can occasionally bare eggy bread/french toast as long as its not too eggy.
I personally find them horrendous but I would love to like them and I think the smell of an omelette is amazing and its an easy meal if you like eggs. But the thing is, I just don't.

Poached is my least favourite way to have an egg [not including raw]
I have never managed to successfully make an omelette, it's one kitchen skill that eludes me. I love eggs but recently just cannot bear the thought of scrambled eggs, they make me feel sick, even though I used to love them and I didn't have any reason to suddenly dislike them :|. I love boiled eggs, so good!

with omelettes you just fold the edges into the pan and swill all the uncoiled egg about on a low heat until it's cooked through. I can't fold them though, they generally end up in a heap on the plate haha

Poached eggs on toast with loads of black pepper! Yummy!
And greg I've gone off omelettes for absolutely no reason! I can't actually bear the thought of them any more, it makes me feel sick!

What's the clingfilm technique??
I always struggle with poached eggs.. I make the water go round in circles then break the eggs into it. Please tell me the clingfilm way is easy??

yep! line a ramequin or espresso cup with cling film with quite a lot round the edge, rub the clingfilm with a but of oil and break the egg into the cup, gather up all the clingfilm and you'll have an egg incased in clingfilm. tie up the excess and drop it into a pan of boiling water, simmer for 3-4 mins :)

:amazed:
That sounds easy! I would never have thought of that.. Does the clingfilm not melt or stick to the egg when ready??

nope. it will stick if you don't rub the clingfilm with oil first. I've not explained it very well http://http://www.b3ta.com/features/howtopoachanegg/ look at the bottom one

I do the same as Happy....drop of olive oil in hot water, swirl it round then put eggs in, but it can get a wee bit on the messy side from the egg white. This sounds a nifty little idea - must try it!:blush:
Lots of salt and pepper with buttery toast, hot cuppa - delish!

the spinny method does work but only if the eggs are ridiculously fresh. and it's easier to see if they're done in cling film because you can fish them out and give them a squeeze ;)
