This person right here, is probably the only one of you faggots who has ever actually used a kitchen.

Just flip the damn thing over.
If you care about not breaking the yolk like some kind of prissy babby then tilt the pan up at the same time and do it gently.

If you don't want to flip it and are not interested in a 50:50 burnt/raw egg, then cook the thing in a lot of oil or fat and spoon it over the top.
Or just put the pan on a really low heat and be patient.

Carefully.
Cook omelette on the lowest heat so it doesn't burn, and get used to waiting. Flip it once the top starts to set.
A wide spatula is the best thing ever for this, as a normal sized one will end up breaking your omelette unless you are very careful.
Anything wide, flat and heat resistant can be used really.
I used a small sheet of aluminium until I got my widespat.

Knobhead chefs will insist that you never flip an omelette because MUH 3 MINITS.
They are rabid cocksleeves who for whatever reason want to serve uncooked egg, and should thus be ignored.

two-hand it

Don't flip it you numpty. Put a lid on it and the white will cook evenly, leaving you with no translucent shit and a lovely runny yolk

Not every kitchen user is some fancy fucking rich kid that can afford expensive silicone instruments, ffs

>>8741081
>expensive silicone
Kroger sells silicone flippers for $5. Wal-Mart sells cheaper ones with thinner metal inside (prone to snapping) for $3.

Just throw the whole thing in the nearest bin.

>>8740487
wait for the property value to go up and then sell it more than what you paid

A fishing pole, but 2 is ideal, get a friend if you can to operate the 2nd pole

I don't want to be that guy, but is this something people actually do?

>>8740487
If you want to cook the white completely but maintain the soft yolk, just poach the damn egg

>>8740487
How do you prevent the white from spreading so much

Fucking this. Back when I was a homosexual athiest, I used to flip my eggs to get them completely cooked. After I accepted Jesus as my lord and savior, I realized that it made more sense to just big a clear lid over it pan.

i make eggs over easy almost daily. it is really easy to flip it without a spatula if you give yourself a bit of confidence. i find that using a smaller frying pan helps a lot. i crack two eggs into my frying pan and they perfectly fill the pan to the edges. i use a small pat of butter to grease the pan prior, making sure to coat the edges of the pan. flipping the eggs is easy and seems impressive if you ever cook for your significant other/guests. after i flip the eggs i let them cook for another 10-20 seconds and then turn off the heat, leaving the eggs in the pan for a bit longer to continue cooking. the result is perfect over-easy eggs where the yolk is viscous but still runs.

first, you have to have one teflon (or whatever hipster nonstick shit you faggots are into) and use it solely for eggs.
if youre cooking a thicker omelette, its ok to pull the pan up, tilt it, pull the eggs apart slightly and let the runny yolks fill in the holes.
then when your omelette is set enough to release from the pan, you tilt the fucking pan to slide the omelette 1/4 way off.
continue to slide/tilt and use a spatula to turn it over onto itself.
takes practice and patience but its worth learning how to do
learn how to make a french omelette. whip the fuck out of those eggs, add a spoon of sour creme and whip them shits until its a step below a meringue and cook it low and slow.
if your omelette resembles the picture at all, throw it in the trash, its burnt.
your patience and practice will be rewarded.

Sounds like someone's insecure because they can't flip eggs.

fuck off tripfag

if we wanted to learn how to flip eggs from people with logons we'd be on youtube.

You don't need to flip anything.
Tip the pan, get a spoon, spoon over the hot oil over the top for a minute or 2.
Been doing this for like 15 years and it's never failed me.
