I was debating trying it but using a frying pan

Same. Then you can eat it afterwards

PeekAtYou · 18/07/2022 15:40

I've seen that kind of thing on SM. "Can I bake a cake in my car?" Sort of thing

sairbair · 18/07/2022 15:41

Purely for science I have cracked one onto my glass top garden table. Forgot the slabs were uneven so half is now on the floor!!

Update!

im going car - it’s a crap car anyway.....

emmathedilemma · 18/07/2022 15:44

@concernedrepurplehouse try using a bit of tinfoil and fold the sides up to crack the egg into it!

TaranTulasForSamhain · 18/07/2022 15:45

You need a pint of harp to go with that egg
Showing my age here 😂

I would have put it on a baking tray on the patio. It would definitely have cooked then.

drinkingwineoutofamug · 18/07/2022 15:52

You've egged me on to try my own eggsperiment. My trusty frying pan on top of my green bin. It's 34c outside.

If doesn't work today , will attempt tomorrow but start in the morning instead. It's forecast hotter here then

Thelikelylass · 18/07/2022 15:53

Do you think it would cook inside a very hot car, in like a metal dish or something?
Just asking for a small child.

My ds wants to do this after hearing people talk about it on the radio. Might try tomorrow. We did a homemade solar oven a while back, worked really well!

mackthepony · 18/07/2022 15:56

Now this is a thread worth following!

Someone needs to put one IN the car

Malariahilaria · 18/07/2022 15:57

I lived in Botswana as a child. One time we bought eggs at the supermarket and drove home in 40 degree heat for 30 mins. Eggs were hard boiled in the boot. 🤣

Enigma2000 · 18/07/2022 15:58

I have brought in the use of a mirror.

I'm far too committed to stop.

My DC are making a solar oven. We tried it a couple of years ago and cooked some eggs.
