poached eggs on wholemeal toast

285ml? pint water

4 medium eggs (free-range/organic if possible)

4 slices wholemeal toast

butter

Serves: 4 children

Prep time: 10 minutes

Cooking time: 5 minutes

1 Put the water into a small pan and bring to the boil. Crack one egg into a cup. Using a spoon, stir the water in the pan very quickly to create a ‘whirlpool’. Slide the egg into the water then simmer for 3 minutes until the egg is firmly set. Remove with a slotted spoon.

2 Repeat with the remaining eggs.

3 Serve the poached eggs on hot buttered toast.

Tips

• Fantastic served with a slice of ham underneath the egg, or grated cheddar cheese on top.

• It is even easier to make this if you buy little egg poachers that clip onto the side of a saucepan.
