Simple pleasures.....

Last week while out buying a few items for our home, I found some silicone pods for poaching eggs. As I cannot ever recall having had poached eggs, I had to buy the pods and of course, the handle for the pods are sold separately, so that too, ended up in my basket.

After a lazy morning, I decided that today, I would try them out.

According to the instructions, you must coat the pods with some oil or fry light(spray 'n cook)before placing them in a saucepan of boiling water. Allow them to simmer for about 4 to 6 minutes.

Once 4 minutes had passed, I removed them from the saucepan (using the handle) and then slipped the poached eggs carefully out of the pods on to a slice of toast.

I was so impressed - the centre of my eggs were not too hard nor too running - perfect just the way I like them and of course, I scored some brownie points with Scott!
