Boiled, soft, runny, dippy eggs!

I LOVE eggs, so my favorite thing in the morning is boiled egg and soldiers! But is there just one answer to 'how to boil an egg'? This is how I get lovely runny eggs (without the egg cracking)...........

• Put the eggs in a pan with about 1 cm of lukewarm water (just a little to start to warm the eggs slowly so the shells don't break)
• Turn on the heat
• When this has warmed a little, add boiling water form the kettle
• Wait until the water is bubbling away
• When you can see that the water is boiling (big bubbles) start a timer
• Time for exactly 3 mins
• When the timer gets to 3 minutes, get the eggs out as fast as you can!

As soon as the eggs are out, I open them all by tapping a tea spoon on the top, if you don't open them straight away the eggs will keep on cooking.................... and we don't want hard boiled eggs!!!

Soft boiled egg and soldiers!
