Mystery Egg?
My husband loved it when I tried this surprise on him, so I wrote it up as a recipe.
Keep the heat on low for a gentle simmer to prevent the shell from cracking. A broken egg will create a big mess. Recipe by Pu-kosan

Cooking Instructions
- 1
With a washed thumbtack, puncture a hole into the bottom end of an egg.
- 2
Enlarge the hole bit by bit by with a toothpick, until it is about 1 cm in diameter.
- 3
Empty the egg through the hole. Use a chopstick or a toothpick to break the yolk. Coax it out by tipping the egg.
- 4
Gently wash out the inside of the shell with water. Pour in the egg whites. Use a piping bag or a funnel to pour it in neatly.
- 5
Boil just enough water so that the end with the hole peeks out (you don't want the water to get into the egg).
- 6
With the hole on top, gently drop the egg inside the boiling water (over low heat) and wait until the outer edges of the egg start to harden. Support the egg with a pair of chopsticks or similar so that it doesn't tip over.
- 7
Once most of the contents have hardened, lay it down horizontally and boil for another 15 minute. It may spill out of the hole, but it's alright.
- 8
Once boiled, chill in a cold water bath. Neatly trim off the egg white that's spilled out of the shell and peel the shell as usual.
- 9
It looks pretty normal from the outside...
- 10
but when you cut into it, oh my!
- 11
Try making this when you have plans to use eggs, or when you have egg whites left over.

Hey, this might actually be good for dieting since it has no cholesterol .

Egg Nest with Magic Sauce Egg Nest with Magic Sauce
Best things in life should be free or at least easy to cook. I am sharing with you a secret sauce recipe which will add flair to any dish you make and surprise you with the magical taste. It does have a sinful ingredient called Mayonnaise. A dash of mayo with garlic, lemon, salt and olive oil makes this dish unique and flavorful. I always have sprouts growing on my kitchen window. I sprinkled some mustard sprouts to get the additional crunch. One seemingly useless kitchen gadget that I used to create my nest from beetroot and potatoes is called a spiralizer. You can use a slice of buttered toast as the base too instead of veggies with same effect. Enjoy for breakfast snack or a lazy dinner.
