I don’t like my egg runny. I only like my egg hard-boiled. If you have the same problem this is the way to cook the perfect hard boiled-egg.

1) Get your eggs and put them in a saucepan. Cover with cold water and put the pan on the hob. Ask an adult to turn on the hob.

2) When you see bubbles, it means the water is boiling and you mustturn off the heat!  Do ask an adult to check it really is off.

3) Wait for 6 minutes then take the eggs out of the pan with a spoon and put them under running water. Leave them in cold water to cool down.

4) Crack the shell on your plate then peel the shell off bit-by-bit very carefully.

5) Slice your eggs, cut them in half or chop them up.

6) Eat and enjoy!!!!!

Tips

• Use fresh eggs!
• If you don’t want the egg yolk hard take the egg out of the water a bit earlier. The egg yolk will still be solid but soft and very yellow in the middle.
• Cut the eggs in half, scoop out the egg yolk. Mix the yolk with mayonnaise or other sauces and herbs. Then stuff the egg-whites with this mixture.
