There's a whole host of methods to perfect cooking one, but why not take advice from a star chef first-hand? Popular British chef Jamie Oliver has shared how to cook the 'perfect' boiled egg that looks brilliantly fail-safe.
Taking to popular social media app Facebook, the TV star admitted that the method starts from the initial purchase of the eggs. Placing your eggs in a fridge can do more harm than good, so he advises that you keep them at room temperature.
