Ingredients:
- 4 eggs

Instructions:
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1. | Prepare Bread Mixture: Cut the leftover bread into small cubes and place them in a bowl. Add a small glass of water to the bowl and allow the bread to soak until it softens. Once softened, squeeze out all the excess water from the bread and crumble it with your fingers. |
| 2. | Prepare Egg Mixture: In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. Add the chopped parsley, basil, marjoram, salt, and pepper to the beaten eggs. Mix well to combine all the ingredients. |
| 3. | Combine Ingredients: Add the soaked and crumbled bread to the egg mixture. Also, incorporate the grated hard cheese into the bowl. Mix everything together until you achieve a soft yet consistent mixture. |
| 4. | Heat Oil: In a frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. |
| 5. | Form Patties: Take portions of the bread mixture and shape them into small patties using your hands. |
| 6. | Fry Patties: Carefully place the patties into the hot oil. Use a spatula to flatten them slightly. Fry the patties until they turn golden brown on one side, then flip them over and cook until golden brown on the other side. |
| 7. | Drain and Serve: Once the patties are cooked to perfection, transfer them to a plate lined with absorbent paper to drain any excess oil. Serve hot, garnished with freshly grated pepper on top. |
