Ingredients
1 organic or free-range egg
1/2 a cup of water
Microwave-friendly cup and small plate or saucer
To serve:
1/2 avocado
1 slice bread of your choice
Hot sauce
Salt and pepper
Method
Fill your cup halfway with cold water. Gently crack your egg into the cup and cover with a saucer.
Place the cup in the microwave for 30 seconds. Check your egg for doneness and cook for a further 30 seconds if needs be. Sixty seconds will result in a medium-poached egg, but as all microwaves are different, check every 30 seconds to achieve your perfect egg.
Serve on bread of your choice with avocado and hot sauce.
