Is it safe to boil an egg with potatoes ?

[oldoakknives]

Spuds & eggs in the same pan 100% safe.
No need for anti bacterial radiation suit either.

If your eggs crack, you're doing it wrong.
1. ALWAYS store eggs at room temperature if you can
2. ALWAYS prick fat end of egg with a sharp point. (prevents air pocket expansion, causing cracks in 99% of cases)

You need an egg pricker, for professional egg boilers.........

Never having seen it done I dident know if unsafe or not Chris thats why I asked.

I only keep my eggs in the fridge never my legs unless there is a benifit I don't know of ?

I poach eggs nearly every day for my breakfast and never had a problem, but I was asking about boiled in with the spuds.

If you can keep your legs in the fridge and your head in the oven you can enjoy a comfortable average temperature.

One of my morning eggs still had chicken stuck to it. Wouldn’t really fancy picking feathers out of my mash tbh

[oldoakknives]

In the UK eggs aren't washed. Kind of makes me think I wouldn't want them in the same saucepan as me tatas.

UK fertilised hen eggs ARE WASHED.

You need to do some rough camping, you're over thinking it.
Just wipe egg, chuck in pan and eat.
You WILL NOT die.
Honest.

Overthinking lol. Just don’t want feathers in my mash. Not to my taste thanks - but maybe where you’re from

Thanks, having eggamined all the above replies from TZ eggperts I have decided to carry on cooking the eggs on there own, but thanks for the eggcellent suggestions.

ps: I now store my eggs at room temp.

If I found plumage in my mash I'd be spitting feathers.

Same here, that would be a right downer.

[Sinnlover]

Finding a feather in your mash would be rather un-phesant.
