Sometimes for breakfast, a golden, buttered toast and a soft-boiled egg, is all I need...okay maybe a cup of coffee too! This is what I do to make a perfect solf-boiled egg and buttered toast
Bring water to a boil in a sauce pan. Carefully with a slotted spoon place egg into the pan (careful not to let it drop or it will crack).
Allow it to boil for exactly 4 minutes.
Remove from boiling water and immediately crack and spoon out egg over the toast.
Break the soft egg with the tip of the spoon to allow the yolk to drizzle over a piece of warm buttered toast.
Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and enjoy.
