Let’s say this : I’ts an easy peasy recipe, but there are some crucial steps you should respect to success. This may sound counterintuitive when you’re eagerly anticipating a runny-yolked egg, but you’ll want to start by gently piercing the yolk with a sharp paring knife. Just one small hole will do. The yolk won’t run out; instead this works as a vent to help prevent the egg from exploding during cooking. Resist the urge to rush through the mere two minutes of cook time. After the initial minute, short-burst cooking is your friend. You can keep a better eye on the egg to get that perfect just-set white and ultra-runny yolk. Plus, it’s an extra insurance policy to prevent the egg from getting too hot and potentially exploding. Let’s move now to ingredients and the way to make it.
