Nira No Tamago Toji

Mrs. Nobuko Shibata

• 6 eggs
• 1/2 bunch nira (chives)
• 6 pieces of dried mushrooms
• 1 cup stock
• 4 teaspoons sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon shoyu
• 2 to 3 tablespoons oil

Soak mushrooms in water for 10 minutes and cut into small pieces. Wash and cut chives into one-inch lengths.

In frying pan, heat oil and drop chives. This will sizzle. Add mushrooms. Immediately add the rest of the ingredients except eggs and simmer for a few minutes.

Break eggs into a bowl and stir with chopsticks. Then pour eggs over the cooking ingredients and cook until eggs are partially done.

Serve hot.
