For Christmas, my lovely mum got me a teeny tiny one-man frying pan and egg poacher to boot. Ever since I’ve been adding poached eggs to everything!
So now that my new foodie obsession is out in the open, here is the best poached egg recipe for you to try. This recipe is pretty quick, simple and you can add any salady bits you’ve got lying around too!
