If you do not cover the bowl while microwaving, your egg might not be thoroughly cooked.- If you do not have a lid for your bowl, use a microwave-safe plate to cover it.
-
6Microwave for 40 seconds. Not all microwaves work the same way. If the egg is not cooked within 40 seconds, add 10 more seconds.
-
7Remove the egg from the bowl. Make sure the egg stays intact. The egg should look like a patty.
- To easily remove the patty, you can flip the bowl and gently tap on the bottom until the egg falls out.
- If you break the shape, scramble the egg and follow the remaining steps.
