1/2 boiled eggs and toast

One of my favorite food is eggs.. Fried, boiled omelet-d or best of all, ½ boiled. I love ½ boiled eggs. This is another food I can eat everyday but i know that it would kill me, so its max of 3eggs a week… but then really, who’s counting..? :- ) I have fond memories of my mum and aunt preparing these eggs every Sunday morning for breakfast. I’ve always like dipping the eggs with toasted bread and even with eu-char-koay and roti canai. Anyway, I digress… It was the weekend and we were looking for a quick fix. So elpea took out the trusty yellow ½ boil egg maker, plunked in some eggs, put in the boiling water and then we just waited till it was done..~15minutes I guess Oh yea, in the meantime she also toasted the bread, and buttered the toast. We didn’t have regular bread so it was the orange loaf from continental bakery. Whatever was available..!! Eggs ( 2 or more).. they must not be too runny and the yolk must not to hard as well
Toast, put 2slices of bread into the toaster and wait for them to jump.. our toaster is a bit screwy so you’ll see our toast slightly burnt. After that butter the toast lightly, or heavily, which ever you prefer. Some times I use garlic butter which works quite nice as well.
Finally, add a dash of ground pepper and a few drops of lea & perrins
and … TA DAAAAH.. ready to serve…
Yummy, 1/2 boiled eggs with buttered toast.
