Big Island Style Loco Moco - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    hamburger patty
    1 lb hamburger (not lean)
    1/4 cup chopped green onion (optional)
    salt or pepper
    gravy
    beef broth
    flour, for thickening
    1 tablespoon butter
    4 eggs
    rice
    2 cups white rice
    Spam
    2 tablespoons oyster sauce
    1/2 cup chopped green onion
    1 garlic clove, minced
Preparation
    Burgers:.
    1. Gently mix the hamburger,onions and salt/pepper. Form either 2 big patties or 4 smaller size patties.
    2. Heat frying pan until very hot.
    3. Place hamburger patties on the pan/grill and let sear just until juices start appearing on the top. Flip over and cook for a couple more minutes. You will want the burger slightly charred but still tender on the inside.
    4. Place burgers on the side.
    Gravy:.
    1. Pour a little broth into the same pan and incorporate the yumyums, then pour in the rest of the broth.
    2. Bring to a boil and let reduce for about 3-5 minutes or so, depending on taste, for a more potent gravy.
    3. Turn down heat to a simmer.
    4. Add couple dashes of worcestershire sauce.
    5. In a seperate bowl, mix flour with some water.
    6. Using a whisk, slowly whisk in the flour/water mixture until gravy is nicely thick & smooth.
    7. Turn off heat and mix in the butter until well blended.
    Eggs:.
    Traditionally, the eggs should be sunny-side up. The secret to a good fried egg is to fry the egg slowly on low heat until it's cooked... just don't overcook it! It also helps to have the eggs thawed to room temperature before cooking them.
    Rice:.
    Use regular medium grain white rice... stir fry with other ingredients.
