To be fair: they said poached egg; poaching is just boiling the contents of the egg in water. Fill a bowl with some water, crack egg into water, microwave.
It would be sick if you could hard boil them just by microwaving them unopened. Maybe if you poke a hole in for gas to escape… 🤔
Also when I am feeling particularly lazy, I just scramble eggs and microwave it. Somehow it ends up even fluffier than making them on the stove in a pan, just gotta make sure to not overcook them.
I microwave scrambled egg for sandwiches daily. The trick is to add a little water. Or, I just rip up two slices of lunch meat and scramble that in, it has enough water in it.
Microwaved egg on the side of a bowl hardens into concrete. Wash immediately or use paper bowls.

What sort of vessel/container do you use for this? Is a tight-fitting lid required?
Just an uncovered bowl.
Huh, interesting. Thanks, I’ll have to try this.
@Kolanaki@pawb.social Holy sh*t, it worked! And they turned out so fluffy!
@Glitterbomb@lemmy.world, thanks for the tip about adding a bit of water and washing the bowl ASAP.
I added milk instead of water, and it still worked. I’ll definitely be doing this again!
