Peel and thinly slice the shallot and garlic. If using chili, thinly slice it as well and set aside.
Beat the eggs in a bowl with a pinch of salt and black pepper until well combined.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and apply 3 sprays of cooking spray to evenly coat the surface.
Add the sliced shallot, garlic, and chili (if using) to the pan. Stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and lightly golden.
Pour the beaten eggs into the pan. Let the eggs cook undisturbed for 1-2 minutes, then gently stir to create soft folds. Cook until the eggs are just set (avoid overcooking to keep them soft).
Add the low sodium soy sauce to the pan, letting it seep into the eggs to enhance the flavor. Stir gently to distribute the sauce evenly.
Transfer the eggs to a serving plate. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the eggs for a tangy kick.
Top with chopped scallions for a burst of freshness and serve immediately with steamed rice or as a side dish.
