Key Ingredients
- 1 bunch fresh chives (approx. 100-150g)
- 3 fresh eggs
- 1/2 tsp fine salt
- Pinch of black pepper
- 1 tsp oyster sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- Generous amount of cooking oil (2-3 Tbsp)
- Pinch of toasted sesame seeds
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, wash the chives thoroughly. Drain them well and then cut them into bite-sized pieces, about 1 inch (2-3 cm) long. Cutting them into smaller pieces will help them cook evenly and look neater in the dish.
Step 2
In a bowl, crack the 3 fresh eggs. Sprinkle with 1/2 tsp of fine salt and a pinch of black pepper. Whisk gently until slightly frothy. Whisking the eggs well will result in a softer scrambled texture.
Step 3
Heat a generous amount of cooking oil (about 2-3 Tbsp) in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, pour in the whisked egg mixture. Do not stir immediately; let it cook for about 3-5 seconds until the edges start to set. Then, gently stir with chopsticks or a spatula to create soft, fluffy scrambled eggs. Try not to break them into very small pieces for a better texture.
Step 4
When the eggs are about 70-80% cooked, add the pre-cut chives to the pan and mix gently. As the chives begin to wilt slightly, reduce the heat to medium-low. Be careful not to overcook the chives, as they will lose their crispness.
Step 5
Finally, drizzle 1 tsp of oyster sauce around the edges of the pan, then add 1 tsp of sesame oil. Quickly stir everything together once more to evenly coat the chives and eggs. Stirring rapidly will help infuse the flavors of the oyster sauce and sesame oil, adding a delicious wok hei aroma.
Step 6
Your delicious ‘Stir-fried Chives and Eggs’ is ready! Transfer the dish to a nice serving plate and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds for a beautiful garnish. Enjoy it as a topping for warm rice or as a delightful side dish with your other meals!
