A way to cook eggs without butter or oil?!


Question: I'm tired of boiling eggs and want to try something new.

Is there a way to make scrambled eggs or anything else without putting butter or oil in there? would it work if i just crack some eggs and throw it in the pan?

poach them in water.

Cooking spray ?

Poached eggs
I scramble eggs with no oil, but make sure to use a non-stick pan.

HARD BOILED

my kids crack an egg into a bowl and then nuke it.

i love quiche and all you have to do is mix and bake

Poached eggs

Mix with some type of flour. Add milk, sweetener, your favorite flavor. Pour the result onto baking paper and pop the lot into an oven.

Tastes better than scrambled eggs, anyway.

Use the microwave. Just beat the eggs in a bowl and cook for one minute per egg at a time, stirring each minute. Allow to stand to complete cooking. No butter, no oil.
(Hint: clean the cooking bowl right away; the egg sticks pretty badly.)

Poached eggs are really nice, especially if you invest in a poached egg pan. That will mean the white stays together nicely, whereas if you just crack and chuck them in boiling water, the whites go a bit shreddy.
Have you tried stuffing hardboiled eggs - I tried this recently and they are great to snack on and easy to do.

Poached?

Put it as topping in noodles lol... or hot steaming rice or eat it raw lol

yeah it will stick but you can do it. Have you ever tried to micro wave them? It works.....

what about omelette's? or baked eggs? i love making omelette's with lots of veggies in them (peas, corn, grated carrot, onion, capsicum) they're really yummy! or you could make a salad with eggs, e.g. nicoise, ceasar.

if you want to poach eggs, then just add a little vinegar to the saucepan of water, this will help them to hold their shape.

hope this helps.

Poached
Shirred
Deviled Eggs
Hard boiled
Soft boiled
Quiche
These are all methods of cooking eggs without butter or oil.

If you use a NEW non stick pan and a high-heat rubber spatula, you can scramble them, but it'll be tough getting the pan clean.

Buy a non-stick frypan or silverstone frypan. Should come out just fine without oil

You can get pans like this at many discount stores for about $8.00 ... like Big Lots.

Get a non stick pan. Or you can just microwave them. The microwave actually makes a good scrambled egg. You can also coddle eggs, you need to have a coddler though to boil the eggs in. You can also use a fat free PAM type spray.

put 2 eggs 1/4 cup of milk a fresh cracked pepper to taste in a microwavable bowl mix with a whisk then put in the microwave on high for approx 3 mins or until cooked. pull out and use your whisk to mash up you will have light fluffy moist scrambled eggs. i like to do my eggs like this and put them and cheese on toast for brekky......sounds gross but is really really yummy

(-: I was going to say, boil 'em. You can also poach them in hot water. Mix them in with soup (like egg drop soup).

If you have a very new, or expensive, non-stick skillet, it will work without oil, but the taste isn't very good.

You might try poaching the eggs in wine.

A little bit of oil is still something your body needs, though. Even 1/2 tsp. of olive oil can make a remarkably tasty egg (use a non-stick skillet, though), and olive oil is a healthy fat.

Oh, one more idea: you can bake eggs in little foil cases (like cupcake liners). It's better if you line the case with some sort of edible leaf (cabbage, maybe? lettuce will also work).
