I’m always keen on trying new kitchen gadgets so when I saw this microwave egg cooker I had to try it.

It is very easy to use, all you have to do is just crack the egg inside, stir it or pierce the yolk, add some salt if you like, cover the lid, place in microwave for 20-30 second and voilà… your breakfast is ready.

I’m not a big fan of microwave cooking but this gadget is very convenient when you are in a hurry or have just one egg to prepare and don’t want to dirty the pot or frying pan. We use it recently a lot to prepare egg for our hamster.

Similar egg cooking cups are available in some UK supermarkets or through Amazon shop.
