Ingredients

280 g rice long-grain
4 eggs
2 spring onions finely chopped, as a garnish

Hamburgers

500 g minced beef
1 egg
2 tbsp breadcrumbs
1 tsp soy sauce
salt to taste
pepper to taste
oil for frying

Gravy

2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp plain flour
400 ml beef stock
1 tbsp soy sauce

Instructions

Preparation

Cook 280 g rice according to the instructions on the package and set aside.
Slice 2 spring onions into thin rings and set aside for garnish.

Cooking

Mix 500 g minced beef, 1 egg, 2 tbsp breadcrumbs, 1 tsp soy sauce, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Knead well and form four firm hamburgers.
Heat oil in a frying pan and fry the hamburgers 4-5 minutes on each side until cooked and brown. Remove them from the pan and keep warm under aluminum foil.
For the gravy, melt 2 tbsp butter in the same pan. Add 2 tbsp plain flour and stir to form a roux. Let it simmer gently for 1-2 minutes until light brown.
Slowly add 400 ml beef stock while stirring to avoid lumps. Add 1 tbsp soy sauce and let the gravy simmer for a few minutes until it thickens. Season with salt and pepper.
Heat a little oil in a separate frying pan and fry 4 eggs to your liking. Tip: fry the eggs in a layer of oil for a surprising flavour and a crispy edge.

To serve

Divide the rice over four deep plates. Place a hamburger on each plate, generously pour the gravy over it, and top with a fried egg. Garnish with the finely chopped 2 spring onions.

Notes

Try frying the egg in a little oil. It gives a surprising flavour and a crispy edge that pairs perfectly with the creamy gravy of Loco Moco.
