Just after scrambling eggs in the micro .2eggs some milk 3minutes in microwave .done set for approx 3 minutes to cool .look back on them and they are floating in water .what happened that me finished with cooking .you try and this happens

I always cook scrambled eggs in a pan on the hob ,knob of butter no milk ,just a dash of cream towards the end .Microwaved eggs turn out like rubber if you don't watch them like a hawk .I couldn't be doing with all that pinging and dinging .It's just as quick on the hob in a non stick pan and they come out nice and creamy .

what is a microwave? Is it something I need, like those little telly things people have in their kitchens ? Never seen a decent programme on one yet.

[boxtops]

Just lift the egg out of the liquid next time, and throw the liquid away :-)

[ummmm]

But it meas they will be over cooked.

I do mine like Shaney.

[weecalf]

ok learnt quite a lot today ,I cant cook .microwave are not for scrambling eggs .ABers know there stuff .

[Tilly2]

Next time, try the microwave on a lower setting.

[ummmm]

It just doesn't work in a microwave. Decent scrambled eggs need more or less constant stirring.

[weecalf]

Setting s are there settings on it

I love scrambled eggs and usually cook them in the microwave and they come out creamy. Never had a complaint yet.

For one person - 2 eggs in a bowl, salt, pepper, dash of milk. Add a small knof of butter if using skimmed milk. Stir with a fork.
Cook on high for 1 minute, remove and stir.
Cook on high for another minute, stir.
As it starts to cook, cook for short bursts and stir.

When it is very nearly cooked, stir again and set aside. Stir after a minute and they should be beautiful.

You cannot make proper scrambled eggs in a microwave !
I agree with Ummm .You have to stir them gently until nice and creamy and then add some smoked salmon ,hot buttered toast and away you go .Yum Yum :)

[ummmm]

I think all the people saying they cook them in the microwave should try our way, Shaney.

[Tilly2]

well, wecalf there are different power settings on mine.

[weecalf]

smoked salmon eh .I had to search for the eggs for ten minutes .There they were in stuck in the blooming fridge I ask you

[Tilly2]

Someone will be along in a minute to tell you not to keep your eggs in the fridge, wee.

[ummmm]

You shouldn't keep your eggs in the fridge :-)

[Tilly2]

:-), ummmm.

[EcclesCake]

Sound over cooked to me.
Don't keep eggs or tomatoes in the fridge.

[hc4361]

I was cooking scrambled eggs in a pan for 30 years or more before I cooked them in a microwave. I still do, when I'm not being distracted by a dozen and one things.

And you should never keep eggs in the fridge. Ever.

Why do fridges have a compartment for eggs, then?
