A method of making an egg based product includes providing a selected amount of a liquid egg base that is poured onto a cooking surface such that the egg base has a selected thickness. The egg base is heated to a selected temperature such that the liquid egg base coagulates into a solid mass. The solid mass is cut and transferred to a deep fryer where the solid mass is deep fried for a selected amount of time in a selected oil or fat. The deep fried solid mass is removed from the selected oil or fat for consumption or refrigerated or frozen storage until reheated by end user or consumer.
