    A better top tip and saves electricity.
    For a hard-boiled egg – place eggs in cold water, bring to boil. turn off heat, leave for 5 minutes and then place in cold water.
    Try it. Works for me every time.

    Easy peasy. Kids loved them. Swapped around fillings as all busy Great Grandma’s do.
