Notes
- Omelets are meant to be for one person, don't be tempted to add more eggs to the pan or you will end up with raw egg in your pan.
- Use 2 eggs for an 8-inch skillet, and 3 eggs for a 9-inch skillet.
- Let the oil get hot before adding the eggs so they cook quickly and evenly.
- Don't add too many toppings. If you do, the egg can rip and scramble.
- Don't overcook the egg. The edges should be just set around the edges before you add the fillings and fold.
