Step-by-Step Process

1. Prepare the Oven
   Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Grease four small ramekins with butter.

2. Mix the Flan Base
   In a bowl, whisk together heavy cream, eggs, and a pinch of salt and pepper until smooth. Stir in the chopped chives.

3. Fill the Ramekins
   Pour the mixture evenly into the ramekins.

4. Bake the Flan
   Place the ramekins in a baking dish. Add hot water to the dish, filling it halfway up the sides of the ramekins to create a water bath. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the flan is set but still slightly wobbly in the center.

5. Cool and Plate
   Remove the ramekins from the water bath and let them cool for a few minutes. Gently run a knife around the edges to loosen the flan and invert it onto a plate.

6. Garnish with Caviar
   Top each flan with a spoonful of Royal Osetra Caviar. Serve immediately for the best flavor experience.
