Eggs are incredibly versatile. You can use them for various meals, and they are a great source of protein with few calories. Egg on toast? Egg-fried rice? Fried egg with an English breakfast? Delicious!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, cooking eggs isn’t always easy. It can be difficult to get the timings right and get the desired consistency of the yolk. However, we can make this process easier as we look at how to make eggs in the microwave below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Make Microwave Scrambled Eggs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You can make fantastic scrambled eggs with relative ease. These make a brilliant source of protein and can fit with many different meals. For example, you could add them to a stir fry. They are also excellent for egg-fried rice or simply on a slice of toast with lashings of butter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Steps for Making Quick Scrambled Eggs in the Microwave<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
  1. Prepare a microwave-safe bowl by coating it with a light layer of cooking spray or vegetable oil.<\/li>
  2. Crack one or two eggs into your bowl and completely remove the shell.<\/li>
  3. Add some salt, freshly ground black pepper and milk into the egg mixture – you can also add some spinach or shredded cheese for extra flavour.<\/li>
  4. Whisk the mixture until it is completely combined and turns a thicker yellow consistency.<\/li>
  5. Set your microwave for a cooking time of 1m30 to 1m45 seconds and start microwaving.<\/li>
  6. Several times, stop the microwaves, take out the microwave-safe container, and stir the mixture.<\/li>
  7. Once the timer has finished and the eggs are fully cooked, remove them from the microwave<\/a>, cover the container, and let them stand for up to a minute.<\/li>
  8. Serve immediately. Once they have stood for a minute, garnish with chopped fresh herbs and enjoy!<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Other Things to Remember<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    There are a few pointers to remember for making microwave scrambled eggs. Firstly, we advise using a rounded microwave-safe container. This helps the cooking process, and they generally work better in a microwave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Also that the eggs cook rapidly compared to boiling on a stove. As a result, it is better to slightly undercook the scrambled microwave eggs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Once the microwave<\/a> stops and you allow the scrambled eggs to stand, this should complete the cooking process and prevent them from being overcooked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Lastly, the times listed above are suitable for large eggs and for a microwave with a wattage of 1000. If you are cooking smaller eggs or have a less-powerful microwave, you should reduce the cooking time accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
