Tulbaghia violacea.

It's not just the leaves you can eat; the flower stems, buds, and pretty mauve blossoms of the garlic chives are all edible too.

Sometimes different varieties are grown for their leaves and others for their flower stems, but both can be harvested from the same plant.

• Garlic chives can be chopped and used as a garnish just like regular chives
• Try using them in compound Butter or sprinkling on soup.
• Stir-fry garlic chives or stuff them into dumplings. 
• Use garlic chives for tempura: Tie them into bundles, dip them in batter, and deep fry.
• Garlic chives also pair well with eggs
