Eggs made in the microwave are a quick and convenient way to prepare this protein-rich food. Typically, they involve cracking an egg or whisking it with optional ingredients like milk, cheese, or vegetables into a microwave-safe container before cooking. This method is popular in Western cuisines and modern kitchens due to its simplicity and speed. Microwave-prepared eggs retain essential nutrients such as high-quality protein, vitamins like B12, and minerals such as selenium and phosphorus. The healthiness of microwaved eggs largely depends on added ingredients; avoiding excessive salt, butter, or cheese can keep the dish lighter and lower in fat. Additionally, microwaving reduces the need for cooking oils, making it a lower-calorie alternative to frying. However, care must be taken to avoid overcooking, which can affect texture and taste. This cooking method is ideal for busy lifestyles while still offering a nutritious start to the day.
