Poaching eggs can seem daunting and time consuming. But they're actually easy to make.

You can safely poach eggs in your microwave. All you need is a coffee mug, water, a saucer, and an egg of course.

Here's how it's done:

Step 1: Fill your mug with half a cup of water.

Step 2: Gently crack the egg into the mug of water. Make sure the egg is completely submerged in the water.

Step 3: Place the saucer on top of the mug so that it covers the opening.

Step 4: Microwave the egg for approximately a minute.

Slide your now poached egg onto a slice of avocado toast (just a suggestion) with a slotted spoon, cut into it, and watch the yolk run out.
