Hi, Parham.

If I'm frying eggs or pancakes in a frying pan, I use my square electric Dutch Oven because of its shape and depth.

But you can still do this with a round pan.

I never cook more than 2 eggs or pancakes at one time, as there is that much less risk of everying melding together. Put 1 desired amount of pancake batter or 1 egg at the 12 o'clock position, and the second one at eigher 5:00 or 4:00.

When I hear from the sound of sizzling or bubbles (in the case of the pancake batter) that it is time to flip, I use a wooden spoon turned sideways so that it is like a blade as a guide to center the desired food onto the spatula. Then I flip so that the food will land in as close to the original spot that it started out at.

I hope that this will be of help to you. As for flattening, these items will assume their own flat shape when flipped.

Hi,

I am curious how you guys handle flattening and flipping in a pan. I have trouble holding a flat object using a spatula, and when that’s done, I have trouble separating different flipped objects so that they are not overlapping.

Is there a way to ensure this is done properly, or do I just need to learn through repetition?

Thanks.
