Step 1
Heat 3 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Working in two batches, fry eggs sunny-side-up until whites are set but yolks jiggle, ~3 minutes per batch. Transfer to a plate.
Step 2
In the same skillet, add shallots and cook, stirring often, until edges blacken and char, ~4 minutes.
Step 3
Add tomato, green chilis, and curry leaves. Stir constantly until tomato softens and mixture is fragrant, ~2 minutes.
Step 4
Return fried eggs to the skillet, breaking yolks gently to mix with the masala. Squeeze lime juice over top and toss once to coat.
Step 5
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
