Started doing that a year or two ago when I saw a video with that chef who gets real mad about everything where he lazy scrambled, and I was like, huh, you know what? Why the hell am I wasting a whole bowl that I have to clean?
Definitely, but I actually just use the spatula to scramble - so no bowl to clean and no fork either! The bottoms of the eggs grab the pan as they cook, so it doesn’t really require much whipping power to get 'em good and scrambled. 100% recommend
The other thing I learned from shouty chef: the salt goes in at the end, when they’re almost done. They’re much creamier that way, you don’t get the ‘egg water’ separating from the eggs

Just have to be careful not to scrape the pan if it’s non-stick
Wait, do people scramble their eggs with metallic spatulas? Or are wooden spatulas also prone to scratching the teflon off?
