I've had the best luck using a large non-stick skillet on an electric
stove. You do the ingredients in batches and then combine.

I'm finding that I actually prefer the electrics because the gas stove
here is a cheepie that needs to be replaced soon! Sure, the extended
heat up time on electric is a pain but the even heat is a blessing.
