If you prefer a firmer topping, beat the eggs separately and mix them into the cheese mixture.
Prepare the Bread:
Lay out the bread slices on a clean surface. Lightly butter one side of each slice if desired for extra crispiness.
Assemble the Toasts:
Spread the prepared cheese mixture generously on the buttered side of each bread slice.

Cook the Toasts:
Preheat a non-stick skillet or oven.
For stovetop cooking: Heat the skillet on medium-low heat. Place the bread slices with the topping side up, cover, and cook until the cheese melts and the bread becomes golden and crisp.
For oven cooking: Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F). Place the prepared bread slices on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
Serve:
Remove the toasts from the skillet or oven. Let them cool slightly before serving.
Garnish with a sprinkle of parsley or extra chili flakes for a final touch.
