First time poaching eggs and it was not as difficult as I thought it would be. Now, you have probably come across thousand and one method to poached these babies, but really ... take the safe way if I were you - means break the egg into a cling wrap foil, secure them properly so that nothing flows out and drop them gently into a pot of boiling water. Let it cook there for about a minute and watch how the translucent egg colour changes to white. And now, depending how runny you like your yellow, of which I like mine runny with a bit of solidness at the side, I let it cook further for another 20 seconds or so. On this particular morning, I wanted to enjoy them on a bed of green vegetables and recall that Mama had placed two bags of spinach which she harvested for us when we were off for holiday in our fridge. A quick swirl on the same boiling water and its ready to be assembled on top of Rye slice. But of course, drain out the water first and season them with some salt and pepper for taste. To LUX it up, theres no harm drizzling some truffle oil over eh. Yummy breakfast :-)

never cook like this before, poaching egg similar to half-boiled egg? Anyway, I like the picture, look really awesome.
hmm not really. the white part are usually cooked thoroughly while the yellow is pending preferences. do tryyy especially on fresh greens, its simplicity is a good welcome :-)
