In a medium bowl, dissolve the cornstarch into 1/3 cup (75 ml) of the milk.

Whisk the egg, the remaining 1/3 cup (75 ml) milk, Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, chives, and salt and pepper into the cornstarch mixture.

Bake for about 25 minutes, or until the cheese is lightly browned.

- Use high-quality ingredients, such as fresh chives and real Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, to elevate the flavor of this dish.
