Boiled eggs are an essential ingredient for preparing many dishes.

Of course, before adding the egg to the other ingredients, it must be chopped.

Perhaps 99% of cooks in this case grab a grater or prepare a cutting board, but you can do without these devices.

Instead, stock up on a deep mug and, of course, a sharp knife.

Place the egg in a cup and insert a knife into the edge, then start moving the knife in a circle as if stirring the egg.

It will take you a maximum of 15 seconds to get the egg crumbs.

You must admit that the undeniable advantage of this method is that it is much easier to rinse a mug than to wash a grater with its serrations.

However, there is an even simpler way, for which you don’t even need a knife – instead, throw the egg into the same cup and lower a masher with large holes on top. However, there is a risk of getting egg puree.
