Take off the heat; transfer the dough to a mixing bowl and leave to cool for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Gradually add the beaten eggs to the dough. Beat with a spatula until the mixture is smooth. The consistency should be neither too soft nor too hard; it should drop off the spoon, leaving a smooth ‘V’ shape.
