Heat the frying pan with the remaining oil (or use small individual pans).
Add the egg and potato mixture and turn the heat down low and let the mixture cook gently until the mixture has set.
Place a plate on top of the pan, and then slide back into the pan to cook for 5 minutes on the other side. Small pans will take less to cook and are easier to flip.
