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 storage.
