To see if I can cook an egg on my patio in this heat.

[Enigma2000]

Well I have cracked it open and let's see. 🙂

Update...

I can stroke the egg! It is firm and no longer wobbles.
progress.

Strokable egg.

Your country salutes you all brave soldiers.humpty would be proud.

If I recall correctly there was success with one fried in Glasgows Sauchiehall Street.

More pictures of this strokeable egg please!

I think it might be a long wait for results from a paving slab - a chicken's body temperature is between 40.5 and 40.5°C, and eggs incubate at about 37.5, so adding a foil/mirror/metal/gas hob will be needed I would think.

Fabulous thread OP

Once I am released from the office I will make this my first job when I get home. Hopefully the teenagers won't have eaten all the eggs!

Every year our local radio station and sometimes the TV station in California used to bake a tray of cookies on the dashboard of a car parked in full sun. All cooked every year and they ate them.
Then would talk about not leaving babies/children/dogs inside the car even for 5 minutes.
seemed like a baby or toddler died every year once it got hot.

Oh OP you're my favourite

i've been wanting to do this!

My eggs-pedition to the car yielded very little to show here, egg is still very runny.
Eggs-ceptionally hot in the car though. In fact eggs-crucifying.
(Ed: ok, you can stop with the hammy jokes now.)

This is why I use mumsnet, every so often a little gem like this appears and I am here for it

It is now 37 degrees here but I have had a disaster. In my eggs-citement I poked the yolk too hard and it burst. It may cook quicker though!!

Eggs-cruciating. Fixed it.

I remember my dad doing on our bonnet and it worked. I'm currently trying in a frying pan but slight cheat is that the egg is broken so may give false results.

Completely following. I'm in an air conditioned office so cold I've got a jumper on. Not looking forward to the drive home.

Also experimenting with butter

We ate the eggs my dad cooked I think

I am going to place an oiled egg on foil tomorrow out front.

I hope to get further than strokable.

I'm not ready to quit yet today though. Marvin the marvellous egg is still making progress.

Anyone got a pizza stone

Did you use oil?
Motor oil on egg yummmmmm🤣

Anyone got any qaule eggs?😆

Hhmmm

It’s doing pretty well!

Mums using Indian stone. Heats well
