Guide for Tamago:

  1. Heat pan to medium and oil pan with the sponge or small paper towel.
  2. Ladle some of the whisked eggs into your pan and let cook for a bit.
  3. When 80% done (still runny), start to fold making about an 1 inch width rectangle.
  4. Oil pan and ladle the next layer and make sure to let some of the new layer under the folded egg to prevent overcooking.
    • Pro Tip: You can move the cooked eggs out of the way to oil the pan properly

  6. If you desire some browning, let the rectangle cook for a bit on both side.
  7. Plate and enjoy!
