the omelette that quit folding and started believing in itself.
means An Italian egg dish, like an open-faced omelette, in which beaten eggs are mixed with fillings and cooked slowly, often finished under a broiler, then served flat and unfolded.
from From Italian frittata, meaning roughly 'fried thing,' built on friggere, 'to fry' — itself descended from Latin frigere, 'to roast or fry.' The same Latin root quietly fries its way into English 'fritter.' So the name simply confesses what the dish is: eggs, fried, and proud of it.
