Microwaving eggs

**Tambit24** · 03-05-2007, 06:56 PM

I have been waking up late due to my new daughter and not having enough time to make breakfest. I was wondering how long you cook the eggs in a microwave. Figure it can't be too long. I searched, but no one has answered this yet, to my knowledge.

1 egg: 30 to 45 seconds

2 eggs: 1 to 1-1/2 minutes

4 eggs: 2-1/2 to 3 minutes

6 eggs: 3-1/2 to 4-1/2 minutes

8 eggs: 4-1/2 to 5-1/2 minutes

Make sure to stir.

I've micorwaved eggs and they come out nearly perfect. Try mixing a bit of lo fat milk and H2O, dash of garlic and chives.

About half way through the times that Dude has outlined, stir and finish off the rest of the time.

MMM Good.

Make sure you spray the bowl with cooking spray, and cover it or you'll have egg all over your microwave. Don't overcook them, if it is undercooked you can just keep running it for a few more seconds untill thry're done! Hope this helps

**Tambit24** · 03-05-2007, 07:33 PM

ty all. def helps. And I def would have not covered them either.

**Dude-Man** · 03-05-2007, 07:33 PM

Yep. That's what we're talking about.

**Dude-Man** · 03-05-2007, 07:33 PM

Don't microwave them in the shell. They'll blow up.

i microwaved a hard boiled egg one time, cut it open afterwards and it blew up like a ****in grenade. Bad idea.

I've never covered mine while cooking. Just used a medium heat and stirred halfway through cooking time. Never a Problem.

good man. taste like cooked ones. i like to add a milk to keep them a lil more moist. microwave tends to dry them out a lil. but not that much. but they still taste great. definetly give it a try
