Top tip, always add a little butter in the cups before adding the egg, this ensures the egg will slide out and not stick.



We have two poachers just as you describe! I brought mine from home!
I second your top tip too!

Does Milti sell them or is this too small a product?

Pah, poachers are for amateurs…

As tess says, simply cook them in a normal saucepan by swirling the water and dropping them in….

Poor you! :shock:
At least you are obviously not allergic to penicillin - you would be surprised at how many people actually are! (No, I do not have exact figures!)

What made me laugh, was the fact no-one batted an eyelid at my dilemma at Kyrenia casualty dept, but had I turned up at Southend hospital after being mauled and bloodied by a mad cockerel they'd have thought I was 'avin a larf!!!!!!!
