    I always boil eggs in cooker to save time and fuel.

    In a pressure pan or cooker add eggs and water .Water level should be an inch more than the eggs.I add a spoon of salt in the water.Close the lid and put the weight on.

    After the first whistle comes,simmer the fire to the lowermost level.Wait for 5 minutes.Switch off the flame and wait till the steam is released completely.

    Now,take the eggs and immerse in cool water.

    Sometimes,if the eggs are not so fresh,the shape may change.

    Another method is keeping the eggs in a basket inside the pressure cooker and follow the same timings I said before.
