I used to work at a breakfast place. It really makes a big difference to be sure to add enough oil in the pan and get it hot. Nonstick, and don’t touch it until the whites set on the bottom. Give it a gentle shake to see if it’s stuck, if it is, get a silicone spatula and gently nudge it. Then you can practice flipping in pan if you want. I really like to utilize a lid with water, but we didn’t do that, just reduced the heat a bit and let it cook. :-)
Edit: re: flipping. Really make sure you don’t add too much oil because if you do, you can burn yourself. If that happens, no emergency, just place a towel on your hand and arm.
I find that for me it rarely gets crisp in a way that will break or crack and it just ends up kinda sinewy. I’ve worried that maybe its cause I’m using steam with a lid to help set the top but I’m not really sure what I’m doing wrong
Thanks ! I’ve gotten better recently and wow does it pay off
