Today's meal : stir-fried chicken with にら/韮菜. Sprinkled nutmeg and salt. Verdict : OK, light flavour that I think goes well with chicken.

What's the name of nira in English? I think it's chives, but a quick check shows that it's known as Chinese chives, Chinese leek and also garlic chives. Well, it appears that onion, garlic, chives, leek and 韮菜 all belong to the same botanical family.
