Cooking Steps
Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
Bring 1 1/4 cups water and 1/8 tsp salt (dbl both for 4 ppl) to a boil in a covered medium pot. While the water comes to a boil, peel, then mince 1 tbsp ginger (dbl for 4 ppl). Quarter mushrooms. Thinly slice green onions.
Add rice to the pot of boiling water. Reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min. While rice cooks, combine garlic puree, ginger, beef, panko and 1/4 tsp salt (dbl for 4 ppl) in a medium bowl. Form mixture into two 4-inch wide burger patties (four patties for 4 ppl).
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add patties to the dry pan. Using back of a spatula, gently press down on each patty. Cook, until bottoms are golden-brown, 3-4 min. Flip patties and continue cooking, until golden-brown and cooked through, 3-4 min.** Transfer patties to a plate. Cover with foil to keep warm.
Add mushrooms and 1 tbsp butter (dbl for 4 ppl) to the same pan. Cook, stirring often, until mushrooms soften, 3-4 min. Sprinkle over 1/2 tbsp flour (dbl for 4 ppl). Stir to coat, 1 min. Add broth concentrate, soy sauce and 1/2 cup water (dbl for 4 ppl). Simmer, stirring occasionally, until gravy is slightly thickened, 3-4 min.
Fluff the rice with a fork, then stir in half the green onions. Season with salt. Divide rice between bowls and top with patties and mushroom gravy. Sprinkle sesame seeds and remaining green onions over top.
In step 4, while gravy cooks, heat a medium non-stick pan over medium-low heat. When hot, add 2 tbsp butter (dbl for 4 ppl) and swirl pan, until melted. Crack in two eggs (dbl for 4 ppl). Season with salt and pepper. Pan-fry, covered, until egg white is set, 2-3 min. (NOTE: The yolk will still be runny!)

Review summary
Updated on Feb 2026- Flavor: Many enjoyed the mushroom gravy's rich taste, though some found it overly salty; consider reducing soy sauce or using low-sodium options.
- Ease of prep: Quick and simple to prepare, but watch cooking times; some found the rice and patties needed longer than instructed.
- Suggestions: Add a fried egg on top for extra creaminess, and consider including a side vegetable like broccoli or peas for balance.
- Portions: Several reviewers mentioned wanting more sauce; others felt the beef portions were small for two people.
- Texture: For crispier patties, remember to press them down while cooking; slice mushrooms thinly for a better gravy consistency.
