Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 medium (sliced thin) Onion
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
- 2 cups Beef broth
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 4 cups Cooked white rice
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 stalks (sliced, for garnish) Green onions
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix gently until just combined. Form into 4 equal patties about 1/2-inch thick, and set aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat, and add the butter and vegetable oil. Once melted, add the sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for 20-25 minutes until the onions are golden brown and caramelized. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, cook the beef patties over medium high heat for 3-4 minutes per side or until fully cooked through. Remove the patties and keep warm.
To make the gravy, return the skillet to medium heat. Add the beef broth, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the pan.
In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to form a slurry. Slowly whisk the slurry into the simmering broth, and cook until the gravy thickens, about 3-5 minutes.
In a separate skillet, fry the eggs sunny-side up to your desired doneness.
To assemble, divide the rice among 4 plates. Place a beef patty on top of the rice, then spoon caramelized onions and gravy over the patty. Top each with a fried egg.
Garnish with sliced green onions, and serve hot.
