Oil-Free Microwave Egg

A practical, protein-rich breakfast idea: an egg cooked in a cup under a damp paper towel in the microwave in one minute, with no oil and no washing up.

Oil-Free Microwave Egg

With this practical recipe that leaves no washing up, you can enjoy an egg quickly at any time!

Ingredients:

  • 1 egg
  • Salt and black pepper (optional)

Method:

  • Crack 1 egg into a clean cup.
  • Whisk the egg thoroughly with a fork. (If you would like to add salt and black pepper, you can add them at this stage.)
  • Dampen a piece of paper towel.
  • The trick of this recipe: cover the cup with the dampened paper towel.
  • Cook in the microwave at 800 watts for 1 minute.
  • Once the microwave has finished, check the egg in the cup. If it has not reached the consistency you like, you can cook it for an extra 10-20 seconds.

Enjoy!
