Hello how may I help you? Hey how do i boil an egg first step is to obtain some eggs ya got em put them in a pot of water, covered by one inch okay I've done that already turn on the stove and heat until you see bubbles It's bubbling now it is very important to take safety precautions at this stage because boiling water can cause great harm Ok should I put a lid on remove the pot from the stove and cover for 10 minutes ok what next make sure you have a pot holder so you don't burn your hand i have one drain the water, being sure not to splash any of it where it could burn or scald yup what next run some cold water over the egg to cool it down ok then eat? then before you eat, make sure it is not too hot, otherwise it could burn your mouth ok I'll be careful thanks enjoy your egg!
