Elaine was dared by one of her producers to take on the challenge and said they got a "heart attack" when she actually arrived to the Virgin Media studio with her ingredients.
The popular presenter decided to make her breakfast speciality - smashed avocado on sourdough with salmon and poached eggs.
The 48-year-old was joined by chef Lizzy Lyons, who attempted to help Elaine with her recipe but was quickly shooed away.
After popping her bread in the toaster and dropping her eggs in the boiling water, Elaine got busy mashing up her avocado and seasoning it.
Her co-host Siomha Ni Ruairc curiously asked her: "Do you ever overcook your poached eggs? Is that a thing?"
Elaine confidently replied: "No, I overcook my boiled eggs."
And in that moment, Elaine quickly realised that she forgot about her eggs boiling and shouted out: "Oh f***, I've overcooked my poached eggs!"
The Virgin Media star was gobsmacked by her accidental F-bomb and told viewers: "Oh no. I deeply apologise for... please don't complain [about] me to the BAI."
Co-host Kevin Twomey attempted to make her feel better about the blunder saying: Live TV... sometimes this happens. It's a stressful scenario.
"I've worked in hospitality and in kitchens and let me tell you, the chefs are saying a lot worse in there."

Elaine looked disappointed in herself and said: "First time in my life on air, I've said that word. For god sake.
"I'm going to get sacked."
Elaine then served up her dish for Siomha and Kevin, who looked delighted to finally dig into their grub.
Kevin broke out into a coughing fit after his first bite and Elaine shouted out: "Siomha you're pregnant, don't eat it for God sake!"
'GOLD'
And if that wasn't enough chaos, as the segment ended Siomha smelt burning coming from the kitchen.
Elaine ran over to the oven shouting out: "Oh the toast!"
Everyone in the studio were in tears laughing as Siomha said: "Can we get a fire extinguisher in the studio please?"
Ireland AM shared the hilarious segment on Instagram and had viewers in stitches.
One fan said: "This is hands down the best segment I've ever seen."
Rebecca commented: "This is GOLD!!!!! Check the studio insurance when Elaine's back in the kitchen!! Brilliant!!"
Carol wrote: "Was the funniest. I was crying laughing."

Love Is Blind UK star who was CUT from show revealed despite getting engaged in pods
A LOVE Is Blind UK star has revealed that they got engaged in the pods – though their connection wasn't seen on screen. The Netflix dating experiment returned last week with 15 new men and 15 new women entering the "pods" in a bid to find love with someone without ever seeing them. 5 Ross appeared on Love Is Blind UK but was barely seen on screen Credit: Instagram 5 It's not known who Ross's mystery fiancee is Credit: Cr. Courtesy of Netflix © 2025 Participants only get to meet their match once they get engaged – and from there it's a six week whirlwind to the finish line including romantic getaways, living together, and meeting loved ones. However, with so many connections there to be formed, not everyone gets to make it past the initial stages, even if they put a ring on it. Typically on a Love Is Blind season, up to five couples are followed past the initial stages. And one star – Ross Millington – has revealed he was one of the unlucky people who were halted from continuing the process. As TikTok blew up with analysing the first episode, one fan spoke about Ross's brief appearance on the show. While he was rarely seen in the pods, he was shown chatting with the lads in the men's lounge as he went through the process – speaking to Kai (who did make it through to the next stage) and Demola (who was snubbed by potential match Katisha in favour of Javen in the process). Ross, a 30-year-old barber shop owner at the time of the series being filmed, jumped in on one fans TikTok asking more about him. "That was me," he noted as she pointed him out. "I didn't make it to Greece unfortunately. Reveal went well though." Ross didn't elaborate further, but as he went through a "reveal" it is safe to assume he at least got engaged. A grab of the comment was later posted to Reddit, with fans dissecting who the lucky woman could be. Love Is Blind UK star storms off show and says 'get this mic off me' after branding co-star 'disrespectful' in fiery rant "Good thing he didnt make it to Greece, as they went to Cyprus," joked one. "I counted 2 guys and 2 gals during the "I'm engaged" scenes that had zero screen time," said another. "They are still around during those moments and I would assume they may have ended up as a couple but were not picked to go to Cyprus. "Makes you wonder if their connection was boring/lack of drama to not be picked over Javen and Katisha...." "I've never understood why they pick some and not the others and then don't edit it down more in post production if necessary," said a third. Love Is Blind UK continues Wednesday on Netflix. 5 Ross was largely seen in the boys' quarters speaking to the other suitors Credit: Cr.

Cork rose Nancy Lehane 'unfazed' by frontrunner status
Cork Rose Nancy Lehane,is decidedly unfazed about being named as this year's favourite to take the Rose of Tralee crown. 'I don't take anything from inaccurate information,' laughed Nancy Nancy hails from Meelin – proudly known as the highest village in Ireland- and said the RoT has been a decades-long tradition in the Lehane family. Rose of Tralee favourite, Nancy Lehane, Cork. Pic: Cork Rose Centre/Instagram Singer Nancy wowed the audience on Monday night with stunning renditions of The Village on the Hill. And unbeknownst to Nancy, the song acquired extra special meaning on the actual night. Cork Rose Nancy Lehane. Pic: Rose of Tralee 'I just wanted to sing a song about where I'm from. I suppose it actually turned out to be really poignant, because a man, like a real community man in the village, actually passed during the Rose of Tralee last night. So it was funny that I sang that song.' The second eldest of five siblings, Nancy also has a massive contingent of extended family who have made the journey to Tralee to see her in all her glory. 'So I started first watching the Rose of Tralee when I was younger. I've 46 cousins on my mother's side so we would all watch it together.' Dáithí Ó Sé and Kathryn Thomas steer the ship at the launch of the 2025 Rose of Tralee International Festival as they meet this year's 32 International Roses. Pic: Andres Poveda 'There's a group of children,13 girls. So every year we meet up at someone's house and watch it together.' But she never envisioned herself standing on the stage representing her county. Pic: Cork Rose Centre/Instagram 'I really admired the girls on it, but I suppose I didn't think I could be on it myself.' In fact, Nancy's Rose of Tralee appearance was a matter of happenstance. 'I was trying to apply my boyfriend to be an escort, but when he declined, I said I would.'

Pic: Domnick Walsh And as this year's firm favourite, Nancy said she is simply proud of everything she has achieved in the Rose of Tralee. 'I'm not really thinking about it like that [winning]. I'm just very happy with what I've done for myself so far.'

The last time the couple were spotted together was on a yacht on July 5, in St Tropez, France. But now they are back together, after the youngest Kardashians star went to visit her man in Budapest, where he is currently filming Dune 3. Kylie and Timothee thrilled two employees at a local coffee shop, when they took a picture with them. Proving they were definitely still a couple, they posed happily with the star struck fans. Posting on the Instagram page for Budapest Baristas, one of the employees wrote: "Today Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet just walked in to our coffeeshop at Buda we were so in confusion, we could barley concentrate, but i think you can see on our face." The happy couple faced split rumours after Timothee was noticeably absent from Kylie's 28th birthday recently. She then posted on Instagram that she had been listening to break-up anthems, including Jeff Buckley's Lover, You Should've Come Over and Labi Saffre's Crying, Laughing, Loving, Lying. Fans recognised she did this just before after her split with Travis Scott, and believed it was a sign that she has called time with Timothee. Sharing theories on Reddit, one fan wrote: 'Obviously could mean nothing, but I don't post break up songs casually myself. Hoping it's nothing though!!' Timothee Chalamet's sister Pauline throws new jab at Kylie Jenner as she slams 'wealth' in furious post This prompted another to write: 'Oof, the first sign of her breakup with Travis was random breakup songs. Could be nothing, she's still following him… 'Edit: yeah I interpret the song as a man messing up, but he still wants to be with his (ex?) lover. Definitely a yearning thing.' However, others thought it might not be a sign of a split, with one noting: 'Could actually be a suggestion by Timothee especially since a Jeff Buckley documentary just came out today.' 'But then she posted the 2nd breakup song from another artist (she actually posted it twice to tell us she's actually listening to it 😭)' noted another. "Not saying they did, but everything is calculated with Kylie. She knows what people are going to assume." "this song has been trending on tiktok for at least the last month," noted another. "i don't think it's anything more than that" But thanks to their Budapest selfie, fans will be pleased to know that Hollywood's young power couple, are very much together.
