I learnt how to make poach eggs a few mins ago. 
I had already thrown in 1 egg into a pot of boiling 
water before asking for advice. Then i decided to try cooking one in the microwave. I kinda burned the one in the pot and the one in the microwave looks weird. i dunno.
I guess its a start

ETA: umm the microwaved one came out rubbery. blech
