   In a spacious bowl, vigorously whisk together the eggs and salt until well combined.

2. 2

   Begin by adding the olive oil to the skillet, swirling it around to ensure that both the bottom and sides are evenly coated. Then place the skillet on a stove burner with the heat turned off.

3. 3

   Transfer all the cracked eggs into the heated skillet. Increase the heat to high. Allow a brief moment for the pan to warm up and transfer the heat to the eggs. Using a spatula, carefully push from the edge towards the middle, bringing along the cooked egg portions. Continue this movement, incorporating uncooked eggs from different areas of the pan.
