2. Caramelize Aromatics: Heat 1 tsp sesame oil in a large non-stick pan over medium heat. Add sliced shallots and cook for 4–5 minutes until soft and lightly caramelized, stirring often. Add minced garlic and sliced chilies; cook 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
3. Build the Egg Base: In a bowl, whisk together 4 whole eggs + 4 egg whites with salt, white pepper, and a pinch of turmeric. Pour into the pan with shallot mixture.

4. Scramble Gently: Stir eggs continuously with a spatula over medium heat for 3–4 minutes, keeping curds soft and creamy. Do not overcook; texture should be custard-like.
5. Add Sweet-Savory Glaze: Drizzle honey and unsweetened coconut milk into the scrambled eggs. Stir gently for 1 minute until combined and glossy. Taste and adjust salt/chili heat.
6. Assemble on Crackers: Arrange 3 crispy crackers per serving on a plate. Spoon warm scrambled egg mixture generously over crackers.
7. Garnish & Finish: Top with fresh cilantro, crushed roasted peanuts, and a sprinkle of chili flakes if desired. Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.
