2. When the water is almost boiling, gently stir the egg and set a kitchen timer for one of the timings below:
3 minutes for really soft boiled yolk and set white
4 minutes for slightly set yolk and set white
5 minutes for firmer yolk and white
6 minutes for hard boiled with lightly soft yolk

Cooking Tip
To prevent egg cracking, make a small pin prick in the shell at the rounded end to allow the steam to escape. The basic eggs recipe is ready for serve...
