Beat the eggs with the chives, salt and pepper. Do not make foam.
Heat a rectangular (tamagoyaki) or small frying pan over medium-low heat with a little oil.
Pour a thin layer of beaten egg (about one third) to cover the bottom. Let set without browning.
When the surface is still slightly runny, start rolling the omelette toward you with a spatula or chopsticks.
Push the roll to the back of the pan, oil lightly if needed, pour a second thin layer of egg.
Let set then roll this layer around the existing roll.
Repeat once more with the remaining egg.
Remove from heat, rest 1 min then place on a board. Slice thickly to serve.
