Mavis has once again laid a whopper I'd like to boil this one and have eggy soldiers, how long shall I boil it for a nice runny inside?

It does depend on how huge is huge, but we boiled Dippy's 98g egg on Friday for OH's breakfast for 4 minutes from boiling. We used the put egg in pan pour boiling water over and bring back to the boil method then 4 minutes and it was perfect. i boil most 60-70g eggs for 3 minutes using this method.

 

the shape of the egg makes a difference too, one of my Pepperpots lays eggs that are quite round and they take a minute longer than bigger eggs from my Light Sussex which are very tapered and pointed at one end.

Thanks Liz, this egg is about 100g so 4mins sounds good. Thats tomorrows breakfast sorted.
