Add the egg, pierce the yolk, and cover: Crack the egg into the water. Gently slide a toothpick into the yolk, keeping it intact. Cover the measuring cup or mug with plastic wrap (if using a mug, you may use a small microwave-safe saucer instead).

Drain and serve: Using a spoon or fork, gently lift the egg out of the mug and set it on a slice of stale bread or a paper towel. Transfer to your serving plate, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and enjoy. Did you love the recipe? Leave us a rating and review!
