Niratama (Chinese Chives & Eggs)
Report
With loads of fragrant garlic chives scrambled together with savory egg, Niratama has become a staple of Japanese home cooking. In this recipe, I share my secret to ensure you get rich flavorful curds of egg that don't end up soggy from the chives.

Instructions
- Add the potato starch, sugar, salt, dashi, and soy sauce to a bowl and whisk until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.
- Break the eggs into the potato starch mixture and beat the eggs until they're mostly uniform in color.
- Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add the vegetable oil and garlic chives.
- Sautee the chives until they're vibrant green and not sweating liquid anymore.
- Add the egg mixture and let it cook for a few seconds until the bottom layer of egg starts to go opaque.
- Gently scramble the eggs, pulling up the cooked layer from the bottom of the pan and allowing the uncooked egg to run underneath.
