We're going back to breakfast basics with our tips on how to serve up the perfect poached egg. Once you've mastered this trick, you'll never look back. Let's get cracking...
1. Bring a small pan of water to the boil; turn down to a low simmer. Crack an egg into a teacup. Add 1 tsp white wine vinegar to the pan and create a whirlpool by stirring the water.
2. While the water spins, carefully tip the egg into the centre of the pan.
3. Simmer for 2½-3 minutes, scoop out with a slotted spoon and rest on kitchen paper briefly, then serve.
