Notes
- Use fresh free-range eggs as they are the star ingredients of this delicious Turkish omelet dish.
- Make sure you use a nonstick pan for making omelets and heat it thoroughly before adding the mixture to it.
- Cook Kaygana over medium-low heat and be patient. Cooking it on high heat can result in a rubbery or overcooked egg dish.
