Steps:

• First, bring a pan of water to a rolling boil, gently lower 4 of the eggs into the water and boil for 4 - 4.5 minutes for a runny yolk.and prepare a bowl of ice water.
• Once the eggs are finished plunge them straight into the ice water and leave them for 10 minutes to stop cooking. This will also make it easier for the shells to come off.

• Now it's time to de-shell those eggs. Lightly tap the outside of the egg with a metal spoon and then peel the shell off. I find this easy to do under the cold water then it just slips right off.
