How to Boil an Egg in a Microwave

Like boiled egg, but find it time consuming to boil egg in water? How about using a microwave? You can't just place an egg in a microwave as it will explode (I learned the hard way). But there are some gadgets that will accomplish this.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Microwave egg boiler
• Eggs
• Water

1. Get a microwave egg boiler from various sources including department stores like Walmart, Target, and K-Mart. If you still can't find them, go to Amazon.com and search for "microwave egg boiler."

2. Pour water into the bottom part of the boiler. Place the metallic part with the egg over the water and close the device. Then place in a microwave.

3. Typically, one egg will require about 4-5 minutes. If you have a multi-boiler that can accomodate 4 eggs, it will take about 9 minutes. You'll have to experiment a few times to the eggs just right.
