Mum, Shafia Bashir, left with skin peeling off her face after egg exploded during TikTok challenge
A mum was left with skin peeling from her face after she tried cooking eggs in the microwave, using a hack she learnt from a TikTok challenge.
Shafia Bashir, 37, has revealed her painful experience after making a poached egg using a ‘TikTok hack’.
She first poured some boiling water in a mug before adding the egg and then put it in the microwave for a couple of minutes.
But when she put a cold spoon on the egg, it erupted ‘like a fountain’ and burnt the right side of her face – leaving her in the ‘most excruciating’ pain of her life.’
Cooking shelled eggs in a microwave can be dangerous as the casing holds in heat.
