Soft Boiled Dippy Eggs With Wholegrain Toast Soldiers Food

DIPPY EGGS

Steps:

• Toast the slice of bread and when toasted, butter it and slice into strips. The toast should be fairly firm.
• In the meantime boil a saucepan of water. Add the egg to the boiling water with a spoon the moment it starts to boil. Boil the egg for exactly 5 minutes.
• Then remove the egg from the water with a spoon and place under a stream of cold water to stop it cooking further.
• Take the top of the egg (the non-pointy end) off with a knife and teaspoon, and place a pinch of salt on the top of the runny egg yolk.
• Serve up in an egg cup together with the soldiers on a plate.

SOFT-BOILED EGGS & SOLDIERS

Steps:

• Place eggs in a small saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Remove from heat and let stand for 2 to 3 minutes for soft-set yolks.
• Cut toast into strips.
• Transfer the eggs to egg cups or a bowl. Tap the top of each egg with a spoon to crack the upper part of the shell and remove. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with the toast "soldiers."

DIPPY EGGS WITH TOAST SOLDIERS

Steps:

• Fill a saucepan with just enough water to cover the eggs (once you place them into the pot, you do not place them in now) and place on the stove. Bring to a boil.
• While you are bringing the water to a boil, fill a bowl large enough to fit your eggs in with ice water.
• Once the water is boiling, carefully lower each egg into the boiling water using the slotted spoon.
• Once all of the eggs are in the water, bring back to a low boil. The water should just be bubbling around the eggs.
• Boil for 6 1/2 minutes, then remove from the water with the slotted spoon and immerse into the ice water. Cool the eggs until you are able to handle them.
• Make your toast in the toaster. Butter the bread, then slice into sticks, or toast soldiers.
• Using a sharp knife, take off the top third of the egg.
• Place the eggs in your egg cup of choice, and serve, dipping your toast into the soft boiled centers!

• When the egg is cooked put into an eggcup and serve with the marmite toasted bread strips.
