Gently crack the eggs one by one into the pan, ensuring there is space between them. Be careful not to break the yolks.
Immediately sprinkle the salt, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and black pepper evenly over the eggs.
Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the egg whites are fully opaque and set, and the edges begin to turn golden and crispy.
