The recipe you mentioned is simple and delicious, but we can add more details to turn it into a truly special dish. Here’s an extended version that includes more steps, suggestions, and cooking tips.

**Ingredients:**

- 4 fresh eggs
- 150 g cold cuts (salami, ham, or any you prefer)
- 100 g cheese (telemea, feta, or cottage cheese)
- 200 g cold polenta (it can be from the previous day)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Oil for frying (sunflower or olive oil)
- Optional: green onion or bell pepper for added flavor

**Instructions:**

1. **Preparing the ingredients**: Start by gathering all the ingredients in a workspace. Make sure the eggs are fresh and the polenta is well cooled. If you don’t have prepared polenta, you can make it from water, cornmeal, and salt. Let it cool and firm up before use.

2. **Beating the eggs**: Crack the eggs into a large bowl. Use a whisk or fork to beat them gently until the whites and yolks combine. Add a pinch of salt, which will help enhance the flavor.

3. **Preparing the cold cuts and cheese**: Cut the cold cuts into strips or cubes, depending on your preference. You can choose to use a mix of cold cuts to add a variety of flavors. Also, crumble the chosen cheese, whether it’s telemea, feta, or cottage cheese. Make sure there are no large pieces left, but rather a homogeneous mix.

4. **Polenta**: Take the cold polenta and crumble it well with a fork. This will add a pleasant texture to your dish. If desired, you can also add some dried herbs, such as dill or oregano, for extra flavor.

5. **Mixing the ingredients**: In the bowl with the eggs, add the cut cold cuts, crumbled cheese, and polenta. Gently mix everything so that the ingredients combine evenly. Add salt and pepper to taste. If you wish, now is the time to add chopped green onion or bell pepper for a touch of freshness and color.

6. **Frying**: In a large skillet, add a little oil and let it heat over medium heat. You can check the oil temperature by throwing a drop of the egg mixture; if it sizzles, it’s time to continue. Pour the mixture into the skillet and level it with a spatula. Let it fry for about 5-7 minutes, until the edges become golden and it easily comes off the skillet.

7. **Flipping**: Use a spatula to turn the dish over. If necessary, you can divide it in half and flip each half, frying the other side for another 3-5 minutes, until it is well cooked and has a nice color.

8. **Serving**: Once the dish is ready, remove it from the skillet and let it cool slightly on a paper towel to absorb excess oil. Cut it into portions and serve warm, alongside a fresh salad or pickles, for a contrast of flavors.

This dish is perfect for a hearty breakfast or a quick meal. Enjoy your meal!
