Start by boiling the eggs hard. Place the eggs in a single layer at the bottom of a medium pot. Cover them with cold water so that they are completely submerged (the water should reach about 2 cm above the eggs). Put the pot on high heat and bring the water to a boil. As soon as the water starts to boil vigorously, reduce the heat to medium so that the water is just gently 'bubbling', and cook the eggs for exactly 9 minutes. After this time, immediately remove the pot from the heat and transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice-cold water for 10-15 minutes. This thermal shock will stop the cooking process and make the shells much easier to peel off.
