I can’t remember where I first learned this, but it’s called a Thai Omelete and I’ve been making eggs like this for years now:

Take 2 eggs and crack them into a glass. Add a teaspoon of fish sauce, a teaspoon of lime juice, a tablespoon of corn starch, and a little squirt of water.

Scramble it up with a fork until it’s nice and uniform with no lumps from the corn starch.

Put 1 cup of oil in a wok or other large pan. Get it nice and hot to where a drop of water spits at you. Shimmering, not smoking.

Hold the glass about a foot over the pan and pour the egg in. It will flower out into this giant, fluffy, egg concoction that could easily fill a dinner plate.

It cooks FAST, FAST, FAST, so be ready to flip it after a minute or so so it doesn’t burn.

You’ll end up with something like this:

    You can substitute with soy sauce if you’re a loser. Fish sauce is the spice of life tho
