You obviously don't want to try to cook it with the shell still on. I did that once at school when I was a kid. Texturally you lose a lot cause you can't mix it when it cooks.

Take a baked potato, cut off one end, scoop out the insides, place egg in potato, put in microwave. 1-2 min depending on strength of microwave. Voila, instant hard boiled egg in 2 minutes or less.

Would never recommend doing it, but it DOES work.

With the huge salmonella outbreak, I don't recommend this.

I guess that he - unlike the people that eggsplode their eggs via microwave - uses water. You try putting an egg in there without water, full effect 5 minutes. Go go go!
