Home: Cling Film Poached Egg

I love poached eggs, but how to cook them without ending up with a foamy egg soup or sticking to metal or rubber poached egg devices?

Easy, as the title says - Cling Film (or Glad Wrap, Saran Wrap etc.)

Find something to put the cling film in - I use a mug;
Add a drop of olive oil and add the egg 
Wrap it up
And repeat until you have a meal worth!
Once they are in the pan, cooking at a boil until they are your desired egg consistency. Soft, Hard - as long as the whites are cooked you are good.
Once they are cooked, retrieve them from the pan and unwrap, the oil will make this easy. They may not be the prettiest eggs but I believe this is the tidiest easiest way to get perfect poached eggs.
