Preparation
Cut chicken into bite-size pieces and thinly slice onion. Mix the eggs in a bowl
To make the sauce, mix the dashi stock with the soy sauce, mirin, and sugar.
Gently heat half the sauce in a small frying pan, then simmer the chicken and onion for 3-4 minutes until cooked through. Turn the heat to low and pour half the beaten egg over the chicken in a spiral motion. Cover and cook for 1-2 minutes, depending on how runny you like your egg.
