Please can you tell me what you do to get good poached eggs in the pod ? I tried - I didn't butter the pod (was teying to be lo-fat) put egg in pod and pod into boiling water. It took ages to cook and then I couldn't get it out of the pod, and had to scoop it out with a spoon, breaking the (runny) yolk. What do you do please ?

Mine are exactly the same!! I love poached eggs but just cant cook them so when i read the reviews of these pods I ordered them straight away but i still cant master them

Thanks for all the tips, i will try again

I wasn`t able to cook a decent poached egg in 52 years, until the pods came into lakeland

Used our Poach Pods for the first time today - not too bad!!
5 and a half minutes in very gently simmering water - tasty although next time I'll go for 5 as they could have been just a touch softer!!
Just a few flecks of cooked white stuck to the pods - despite a wipe of oil first.
How do you stop that?

I also got a few bits stuck when I wiped them with oil, I changed to wiping them with butter or marg and they don't stick now.

Thanks for that Kittie, I've been thinking about a pressure cooker for ages, if nothing else it will be handy for all the beans I seem to cook! Will have a look at this one, the simpler the better for me!

The pineapple thingy is also on my list, having cored and peeled several in the past week, I have decided to invest, I'm sure it'll be more economical than the amount I lose when I do it with a knife!

btw I have the jam maker and I love it, I like the fact that it just makes a few jars, ideal for any cheap fruit I pick up in the supermarket, and I like the fact that I leave it to get on with it. Basically it means that we have a greater range of preserves. I still do vats of marmalade, apple chutney and strawberry jam the usual way.

:eek: to the soup maker! Never come across that before, don't think it'll be making its way into my house, but then I doubt it'd make enough soup to go round my lot!

hello
do you have any recipes for the jam maker and i would love to hear how you make your apple chutney:T

Hi everyone

I've just had a lovely wander round our Lakeland shop. I wasn't actually supposed to be buying anything but they have an offer of 3 for 2 on enamel ware so I now have a pudding basin ( which fits wonderfully inside my slow cooker), a pie plate and an oblong deep pie dish. All things that I need I must add because my cookware is all battered and sad looking and older than my kids (both adults)
Sad I know that this had made me happy but you find happiness where you can.
Pie for tea I think
Have a lovely day

(Oh they also had smaller pudding basins, milk pans and smaller deep pie dishes ):rotfl:
