Easier this way because it doesnt spread out and go everywhere. Plus you can control easier in a frying pan.

Don't use a frying pan, use a saucepan with deepish, swirling water water on a rolling boil.
Use eggs that are as fresh as possible as well.
 
On me lonesome now,won't be getting any Xmas Gifts but on a plus side I won't have to buy any

If you keep practising really hard from now on, you will be able to have a perfect poached egg for your Crimbo dinner

Saucepan
couple of inches of lightly boiling water
tablespoon of vinegar (keeps the egg together)
pop yer chucky eggs in
turn off the heat
cover
3-4 mins later (depends how runny you like your yolk)

poached eggs, done

Get the water boiling in a receptical of your choice. Before cracking the egg into the water - use a spoon to lower the egg in to the water and leave it there for 20 seconds. This begins to imperceptably firm up the white. Crack the egg in to the boiling water as normal. The white should be firming up and not spread all over the pan. Take the pan off the boil and cover for 5 minutes or until the egg is done to your liking.

Note: Fresher the egg the less its likely to spread.

If i did everything mentioned on here I'd be in prison by now. It'd start with the little things. First, poached egg, then shooting squirrels. Before i know it i'll be stalking Sarah Palin while hatching a plot to expose George Bush as a murderer.


Nothing wrong with shootiing squirrels, ****ing pests! I have nearly rid my garden of them now.

So heat the egg up in boiling water for 20 seconds then try to crack it with bare hands, sounds sensible :icon_bigg
