To fold an omelette, first add your desired fillings to one half of the omelette. Then, use a spatula to gently fold the other half of the omelette over the fillings, forming a half-moon shape. Alternatively, you can roll up the omelette from one end to the other. With a good non-stick pan and a little practice, you should have no trouble.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n          \n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div><div class='faqItem '>\n      <h3 class='faqItem__q'>\n        <button type='button' class='faqItem__qWrap' aria-expanded='false' aria-controls='faqList-1-6'>\n          <span class='faqItem__q'>Can I make an omelette without using a pan?<\/span>\n          <div class='faqItem__togglerIcon'><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M6 9l6 6 6-6\" stroke=\"#000\" stroke-width=\"2.67\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"\/><\/svg><\/div>\n        <\/button>\n      <\/h3>\n      \n      <script type='application\/ld+json'>{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Can I make an omelette without using a pan?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":\"Yes, you can make an omelette without using a pan. One method is to use a microwave-safe dish to cook the eggs in the microwave. Another option is to make a frittata, which is similar to an omelette but baked in the oven. By definition, frittatas involve the eggs being mixed in with the other ingredients (veggies, cheese, meat), rather than folded in the centre like an omelette.\\n\"}<\/script>\n\n      <div class='faqItem__aWrap' aria-live='polite' id='faqList-1-6'>\n        <div class='faqItem__a' aria-hidden='true'>\n          <div class='faqItem__aText'><p>Yes, you can make an omelette without using a pan.
