About this dish
Rice, then a beef patty, onion gravy and a soft fried egg: the Hawaiian bowl is built in that order.

The gravy starts in the pan the patties came out of, with butter and the rest of the onion scraping up the browned juices before flour and Worcestershire sauce go in. The yolk gets broken and stirred through with the gravy.
Ingredients
Instructions
- 1
Finely mince 120 g onion and mix half into 250 g ground beef.
Shape two patties without working the mixture excessively.
- 2
Heat a pan over medium heat and cook the patties for about 4 to 5 minutes per side.
Check the thickest center with a food thermometer and continue until it reaches 71°C (160°F). Browning alone is not a doneness test; avoid pressing out the juices.
- 3
Remove the patties and keep the same pan on medium-low heat.
Add 1 tablespoon butter and the remaining onion, cook for 2-3 minutes, and scrape up the browned beef juices from the bottom.
- 4
Sprinkle in 1 tablespoon flour and cook for about 1 minute to remove the raw taste.
Pour in the 250 ml water gradually with 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
- 5
When the gravy starts bubbling, lower the heat and simmer while stirring until it thickens.
Once it lightly coats a spoon, return the patties briefly to warm them through without boiling hard.
- 6
Fry the 2 eggs in a separate pan until the whites are set and the yolks stay runny.
Spoon 2 cups cooked rice into bowls, add the patties, gravy, and eggs, then break the yolks before eating.
