My second attempt at these eggs produced divine results!

And my first attempt??  Well lets just say if you are just about to cook slow poached eggs and a friend you haven't seen for ages knocks on the door and you absent mindedly plop the eggs in the TMX without the basket . . . it's not good! :o

LOL!!

So weird I looked up this recipe earlier today when we were talking about poached eggs. I could have just waited a few hours and it would have been bumped into the unread threads, lol.

just tied these eggs at my friend's place and they got a TMX! it is unbelievably easy and I did remember the $$ that I paid cumulus inc for their 65C egg for breakfast! Our friend did wake up early to start the eggs in TMX!

How good it would be if there is a delay start feature...and I can just wake up and have my eggs!

but that's for another part of the forum

Ultimate in fail  :(

Left with a grumpy husband and breakfast for two dumped in the bin  :-\ We cooked them and left them in the water for 15 mins and we still may aswell have just cracked a raw egg on to our toast. Not sure whats going on but I wont be trying again. Definately think I need to stick to poached eggs in a saucepan.

That's disappointing. Were the eggs directly from the fridge?

I do my boiled eggs in there and can get on with other things whilst they are cooking.  If I do a potato and egg salad, I just sit the whole eggs on top of the diced potato in the basket, remove them when they are cooked and continue cooking the potato until it is done - it's so easy.

I made this with only 4 eggs.....  we needed 5.....  but I know my kids and they HATE poached eggs.  So,  I knew very well that I would be getting theirs.  Well.....  guess what!  I did not get one taste of any poached egg.  THEY ALL SCOFFED IT DOWN!!!!!  EVERY BIT OF IT!!!!!

Unbelievable.

ChanNKids.... I know you don't want to....  but the people here have encouraged me to try again when I didn't want to and then it worked!!  So,  maybe try one day when it doesn't matter,  iykwim...  with plenty of time to get something else if need be. 

If I'm honest,  our eggs must have sat in the water for an ectra 5 minutes and then up in the basket for another 15-20 minutes before we ate them,  while I plated up the rest. 

Have a go!!!

Have just done the eggs this morning, but the first one was very undercooked.  Realised I should have had them at room temperature so cooked the other one for 12 minutes longer and left in the basket for a 15 minutes.  This is for large eggs straight from the fridge.
