In French, this dish is called oeufs pochés, which literally means "eggs scalded with boiling water." A poached egg resembles a boiled fried egg: the yolk inside remains whole and liquid, while the white sets in hot water and envelops the "filling." Try an unusual and very convenient way to cook such an egg.

Step 1

Take a bowl or any other deep container. Place an unfolded plastic bag in it.

Step 2

Grease it with a little vegetable oil.

Step 3

Break an egg into it.

Step 4

Roll the egg tightly in the bag so that the yolk does not leak. Tie it.

Step 5

Bring water to a boil and drop the poached egg into the barely bubbling liquid. Cook for 3 minutes.

Step 6

Take out the bag with the cooked egg. Make a cut and take out the poached egg.
