Is there such a device?

Doesn't the cling wrap melt? Why not just put it in a microwave dish? Also contrary to popular belief you don't lose any nutrients when microwaving.

It has the net effect of steaming. But depends what type of dish you were referring to, most that had lids see them coming off while clish wrap stays in tact.

But no it doesn't melt.

Rice...not so sure.

Microwave.

250ml rice with 1l of water for 20 minutes in a microwaveable bowl.

Done.

Are you a troll?

Must be...surely.

Or one of those tinfoil people who believe Microwaves are bad for you.

 

[Kloofvreter]

We have a similar one. Works perfectly. Used every day. Used for boiled eggs and poached eggs. Bought ours from PnP Hyper.

I think the first thing they need to do, take the hat off and bam the microwave won't hurt them.

Sounds like you are either looking for:
a) An egg cooker - I can find some images for a single egg variant, but not really any local sources
b) A tiny kettle? Simply a small electric kettle with automatic shutoff
c) One of those long vertical "egg roll" thingies (eg. search for rollie eggmaster) - though I've never tried one (nor do I really want to)
d) A microwaveable bowl you can cook things in

Don't eggs in their shell explode in there?

Don't eggs in their shell explode in there?

If you cover them entirely in water, technically they shouldn't. But you'd have to completely submerge them.

That's why you prick the bottom and lower the power.

Who the hell eats only one egg anyway?

brb. I'm going to see if there are any eggs in the fridge.

I was thinking more for rice and veggies, but making a hole in the top of the egg should minimize the risk

Microwave.

250ml rice with 1l of water for 20 minutes in a microwaveable bowl.

Done.

Or - prepare a larger quantity of rice, freeze excess into portion sizes in sandwich bags, defrost and reheat in micro as needed

1 egg, does this guy even do pushups.

 

[OldGoat]

Me - Although I'm using 1 egg as an example (meaning small portions)

1 egg, does this guy even do pushups.

Why on earth would I want to do a pushup :crylaugh:
