- 2/3 cup white rice

The gravy:

Instructions
- Cook the rice according to package instructions.
- Meanwhile, combine the ground beef, panko, onion, egg, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper together and form 4 patties. In a large skillet, heat the oil and cook for about 4 minutes per side until done. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
- In the same skillet, scrape up the browned bits of the meat and melt the butter. Add the flour and whisk until a light-brown paste forms. Whisk in the broth. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Add the Worcestershire sauce and simmer 5 minutes more. Season to taste.
- Finally, fry the eggs runny sunny side up or as you prefer. Serve the burgers over the cooked rice and top each with the fried egg and some gravy. Enjoy!
