Finely chop the onion and garlic.
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, half of the chopped onion, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Form the mixture into 4 patties of equal size.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Once hot, add beef patties and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until cooked through. Remove and set aside.
In the same skillet, add butter and the remaining chopped onion, cooking until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in beef stock and bring it to a simmer.
In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water until smooth.
Slowly add the cornstarch mixture to the simmering beef stock, stirring continuously until the gravy thickens. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste if needed.
In a separate frying pan, cook the eggs sunny-side up or to your preferred doneness.
To assemble, place 1 cup of cooked rice on each plate. Top with a beef patty, pour a generous amount of gravy over the top, and crown with a fried egg.
Serve immediately and enjoy your soy-free loco moco!
