Make sure your saucepan is large enough to fit all of your eggs while they remain submerged in the water
Fill your saucepan three quarters full with water and bring the water to the boil
Once the water has come to a boil carefully lower your eggs into the water using a slotted spoon
Then start a timer –
6 minutes for a runny yolk
7 minutes for a soft yolk
10 minutes for hard boiled
When the timer goes off remove the eggs quickly with the slotted spoon
Place under cold running water for 1-2 minutes to stop the cooking process
Peel and serve. I find peeling them under running water is the easiest method
