Perfect choice! ✨ Making poached eggs in the air fryer is a game-changer — no swirling water, no mess, and you get perfectly runny yolks with tender whites every time. Here’s the detailed recipe:

 The Ultimate Air Fryer Poached Egg Recipe

 Ingredients

• 2 large fresh eggs (room temperature works best)
• ½ cup water (per ramekin or silicone cup)
• ½ tsp white vinegar (optional, helps whites set better)
• Salt & black pepper to taste

(Optional Toppings: chives, smoked salmon, avocado, sautéed spinach, hollandaise sauce)

‍ Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Air Fryer

1. Set air fryer to 190°C (375°F).
2. Preheat for 3 minutes.

Step 2: Prepare Ramekins

1. Lightly grease 2 small ramekins or silicone cups with oil or cooking spray.
2. Add 3–4 tbsp of water into each ramekin.
3. Crack one egg into each ramekin (be gentle to keep yolk intact).
4. Add a drop of vinegar if you want firmer whites.

Step 3: Cook in the Air Fryer

1. Place ramekins carefully into the air fryer basket.
2. Cook for 6–8 minutes depending on yolk preference:
   • 6 minutes → soft, runny yolk
   • 7 minutes → medium-set yolk
   • 8 minutes → firmer yolk, still creamy

Step 4: Remove & Drain

1. Use tongs to carefully lift ramekins from the air fryer.
2. With a slotted spoon, gently scoop out each poached egg.
3. Place on a paper towel to drain excess water.

Step 5: Serve

1. Season with salt, pepper, and herbs.
2. Serve on avocado toast, English muffins, or alongside bacon & spinach.
3. For brunch vibes, top with hollandaise or chili oil.

 Tips for Success

• Fresh eggs poach better — older eggs spread too much.
• If using silicone cups, reduce cooking time by ~1 minute.
• Always check at 6 minutes first (since different air fryers vary).
• Don’t overcrowd — leave space for air circulation.
