Add them to warm water to temper the eggs before adding to boiling water to prevent cracking.

Once the butter starts to brown (it takes 1-2 minutes), add ½ teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon red chili flakes, and ½ teaspoon paprika. Mix continuously and cook for 1 minute. Turn off heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil and mix well. Let this cool.
