Scrambled eggs are a classic breakfast, lunch, or dinner option, enjoyed with toast, a full English, or simply on their own. But who has time to stand over a stovetop in the morning? Luckily, BBC Good Food has a super easy microwave solution that delivers perfectly cooked scrambled eggs in just minutes.
They claim the microwave method results in eggs that are just as delicious, if not better, than those cooked on the stovetop. This protein-packed dish takes only four minutes to prepare, making it ideal for busy mornings or those seeking a quick and easy meal.
Here’s how to make perfect microwave scrambled eggs for one person:
Ingredients:
* Two eggs
* Two tablespoons of whole milk
* Toast, to serve
Method:
1. Whisk together the eggs, milk, and a pinch of salt in a microwave-safe jug or bowl using a fork.
2. Microwave on high heat for 30 seconds. Then, whisk again and microwave for another 30 seconds.
3. Beat once more to break up any lumps and microwave for an additional 15 seconds. Give it another whisk.
4. At this stage, your eggs should be nice and loose. If you prefer them this way, serve immediately!
5. If you prefer a firmer texture, microwave for another 15 seconds, whisk, and serve.
Enjoy your quick and delicious scrambled eggs! Serve them with toast and avocado, toast and bacon, or simply toast and butter for a tasty and satisfying breakfast.
Pro Tip: For those who love bacon with their eggs, you can also cook bacon in the microwave. Cook for 45 seconds per rasher for a less crispy bacon, or one minute for a crispier result. Check every five seconds after one minute to prevent burning.
