Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Add the onion, garlic, beef, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce to a large bowl and mix until completely combined. Form the mixture into 5 patties, season on both sides with salt and pepper, and set on a plate.

  2. Add the oil to a very large frying pan over medium heat. Once it begins to smoke lightly add the hamburger patties in and cook for 3-4 minutes per side or until well browned on each side.

  3. Set the hamburger aside. Drain off 1/2 of the oil used to cook the ground beef into a small frying pan and set the small pan aside.

  4. In the same large frying pan over medium heat, add the mushrooms and cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until lightly browned.

  5. Add in the flour and stir it in until it is completely combined,

  6. Pour in the beef stock and the remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, and cook for 3-4 more minutes over medium heat until it becomes thick like gravy.

  7. Add back in the cooked meat patties and simmer over low heat.

  8. Fry the eggs 1 at a time in the small frying pan in the rendered meat fat over medium heat for 30 seconds for a sunny-side-up egg.

  9. Serve the beef patties and mushroom sauce over rice and top off with the fried egg.

  10. Garnish with sliced green onions.

Notes

This is a great use of left over hamburger patties from the hamburger recipe here: https://recipesage.com/#/recipe/07dda7b8-96de-4aee-83b5-57467eaae470

Or do it the other way and make this first and serve the left over hamburgers on buns the next day.

Difficulty rating 2* is based on using leftover hamburgers. It would be a 3-4 if making hamburger patties just for this.
