Microware Omelet Pan

From Nordic Ware

If you care, even the slightest bit, about omelettes, don't bother with this product. The gimmick is that you put eggs in either side of the fold-over container. You add your filling, flip and nuke. That's how it works, unfortunately the resulting omelette is a fantastic mess. Let's face it. Eggs prepared in the microwave are weird. They taste funny and the yolks turn green. There's nothing this pan can do to stop it. I made several omelettes and it was always a crapshoot whether the filling would cook or if the omelette would hold an omelette-like shape.

You save very little time and effort compared to making an omelette on the stove. If all you have is a microwave, my advice to you is to get a better job. To make a decent omelette, the old-school is still the only school: surface heat, a frying pan and a spatula.

The price we paid: $4.99

I think that the problem is that you didn't follow instructions. I spray the inside of the pan with cooking oil, pour the egg mix in both sides evenly, cook for 1 min. 30 seconds, take it out of the microwave, add all other ingredients, cook for another 2 minutes and get a perfect omlette every time.

Eggs cooked -- if you call "made rubberlike" a form of cooking. Except for the middle, which was a bit raw.
