Watch: Digital Creator Uses Cucumber To Grease A Pan, Leaves The Internet Divided
Eggs are a breakfast staple with a fanbase of their own. For many non-vegetarians, the first meal of the day often includes a variety of egg dishes, ranging from classic scrambled eggs—customised with cheese or herbs – to options like omelettes, frittatas, poached or boiled eggs. Among them, the sunny side up remains one of the most popular, thanks to its quick preparation time. But worried about the oil it usually requires? An influencer named Jana Seraina Düvel shared a video on her social media handle revealing a clever oil-free hack for making sunny side up eggs. In the video, captioned 'Learned this from an Italian grandmother and will NEVER do it with oil again,' she begins by heating a pan on the stove. Then, Jana rubs the surface of the hot pan with a half-cut cucumber before cracking an egg onto it. Surprisingly, the egg fries smoothly without sticking to the pan, leaving the influencer amazed. She finally plates the sunny side up alongside a slice of toasted bread and some chopped cucumber. The video ends with the caption: 'Call me a chef from now on.' Watch the full video below: View this post on Instagram A post shared by jana seraina düvel (@ The video went viral with almost 3.7 million views so far. However, social media users were left divided – while some found the unique cucumber trick interesting, others pointed out that the pan used was already non-stick. A person wrote, 'No way,' echoing the same emotion as that of Jane after discovering that the cucumber trick helped leave no residue from the egg on the pan. In reply, Jane mentioned, 'That's what I thought hahah.' Someone added, 'I'm impressed!' Meanwhile, one user said, 'Is this not a nonstick pan? Isn't that what they do?' Another mentioned, 'Honey Italian nonnas use olive oil on EVERYTHING. Sure this lady wasn't polish?' 'Now do it on stainless steel,' stated yet another social media user. 'Uses a non-stick pan to do non-stick cooking, the pan works as it is and the crowd goes wild,' read a comment. A person suggested, 'Or use olive oil the healthiest that there is.' What's your take on using cucumber to grease a pan? We would love to hear your thoughts!

Madeleine McCann's parents release heartfelt message to their missing daughter on 18th anniversary of her disappearance ahead of her 22nd birthday this month
Missing Madeleine McCann 's parents have posted a poignant message to their missing daughter on the 18th anniversary of her abduction. Kate and Gerry McCann updated their official Find Madeleine Facebook page just hours ahead of the milestone of when she went missing during a family holiday in Portugal on May 3 2007. The toddler vanished while in the resort of Praia da Luz on the Algarve and since then there has been no positive sighting and no one has been charged with her abduction, but her parents have never given up hope. In their message – which also marked what would be Madeleine's 22nd birthday later this month - they also made a heartfelt nod to missing and displaced children in the UK and war torn Ukraine and Gaza. Kate and Gerry said: 'As we arrive at the 18th anniversary of Madeleine's abduction, we'd like to thank our faithful supporters once again for standing by us and never forgetting about Madeleine. 'The years appear to be passing even more quickly and whilst we have no significant news to share, our determination to 'leave no stone unturned' is unwavering. We will do our utmost to achieve this. 'May is also the month which includes 'International Missing Children's Day' (25th). We continue to remember all missing children and their families, both here in the UK and abroad, thinking especially of all the children displaced from their homes & families in Ukraine & Gaza at this time. 'We're very grateful to the UK Charity, 'Missing People' for their ongoing, invaluable work, & to all organisations, charities and police forces who remain committed, despite many challenges and limited resources, to finding & bringing home the many missing and abducted children. The couple also posted a poignant message celebrating Madeleine as 'the very beautiful and unique person she is' Gerry and Kate said that 'no matter how near or far she is, she continues to be right here with us, every day' 'May is also Madeleine's birthday - her 22nd this year. No matter how near or far she is, she continues to be right here with us, every day, but especially on her special day. We continue to 'celebrate' her as the very beautiful and unique person she is. We miss her.' The post contained a montage of pictures of Madeleine with the caption:' No matter how near or far she is, Madeleine continues to be with us, every day.' Kate and Gerry signed off the message which was posted on Friday night, ahead of Saturday's anniversary and they are expected to attend a prayer vigil in their home village of Rothley, Leicestershire, to mark her disappearance. Earlier this week it emerged that police would be keeping an eye on the event after Kate and Gerry were allegedly stalked by a polish woman called Julia Wandel who has visited their home and called them claiming to be their missing daughter. Wandel has since been arrested and is in custody ahead of her trial in the UK later this year after she was arrested at Bristol airport on her way to visit Rothley and Kate, 57, and Gerry, 56, are due to give evidence. Convicted rapist and paedophile Christian Brueckner, 47, has been named as the prime suspect for her abduction and murder by German police but since the announcement five years ago he has not been charged with any offence. The German was living in the Algarve at the time of Madeleine's disappearance and is currently serving a seven-year jail term for raping a woman in the same area and he is due for release in the autumn.

Polish designer Magda Butrym's unique collection for H&M brings Slavic romanticism center-stage
The leitmotif of the collection is the rose - an unrivalled paragon of femininity - delicate yet confident, subtle yet independent, delightful and constantly evolving. "I see this collection as an invitation to our world - a celebration of femininity and flowers. Each piece reflects the spirit of Slavic romance," emphasises designer and brand founder Magda Butrym in an H&M press release. The rose is an ever-present motif in Slavic mythology, reflecting the poetry of the romantic era as well as Polish folklore. In her latest collection, Butrym hopes to invite a larger audience than ever into the world of Slavic mysticism. In the words of Polish national poet Adam Mickiewicz: "the rose is alive! a soul has entered it", and the flower is a constant reminder of the steadfastness of women who, despite the prevailing gloom on the pages of 19th-century Polish history, exuded strength and self-confidence. The collection also commemorates the 10th anniversary of the Magda Butrym label, becoming an opportunity to rediscover its most iconic silhouettes. It includes archive designs from the fashion house - from airy dresses inspired by flower petals to wide-shouldered blazers and oversize structured coats. Some key pieces from the collection include a red ruffled gown reminiscent of a bouquet of roses, a flowing lace creation and a deep burgundy leather coat. Each captures the essence of the collection, combining femininity, boldness and masterful craftsmanship. Jersey dresses in shades of pink and red and an expressive rose pattern also stand out. They wrap the silhouette for a modern, versatile look. Timeless black suits with strong shoulders and rose jacquard lining emphasise Magda's architectural approach to fashion. "We are thrilled to invite people into Magda's powerful and poetic world. The collection teems with vitality and joy, reflecting the designer's extraordinary ability to capture contemporary femininity in a unique way," adds Ann-Sofie Johansson, the Creative Advisor for H&M. Accessories from the collection include flower-heeled sandals, iconic flower-shaped earrings set with silver crystals and silk scarves that reinterpret polish femininity in an elegant, contemporary style. The collection will be available on and in selected shops from Monday, 24 April 2025. Magda Butrym made another appearance at Paris Fashion Week, presenting the 'Magdalena' collection for the autumn/winter 2025-2026 season. The show took place in an elegant space overlooking Parc Monceau, where, amidst Polish glass art and hand-knitted lace, the models presented creations combining romance with strength. Her designs have been worn by, among others, Gigi Hadid, Dua Lipa, Rihanna, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Selena Gomez, Natalie Portman, Jennifer Lawrence and Hailey Bieber, thus consolidating the brand's position among global luxury fashion houses. Butrym's characteristic creases, floral appliqués and oversized jackets, inspired by the 1980s, underlined her unique style. The collection is a tribute to Polish heritage, skillfully transformed into modern fashion with a global appeal.
