For the best flavor, use high-quality feta cheese, preferably goat milk feta, if available. Do not overcook the eggs. They should be softly set and slightly moist for the best texture. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to your preference for spice. Serve immediately with toasted bread or croissants for a complete and satisfying breakfast or brunch. Consider adding a touch of lemon zest for an extra layer of brightness.
