Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 cup demi-glace sauce
- 1 large egg
- 2 cups mixed vegetables (cauliflower, broccoli, carrots)
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Instructions
- 1
Season the 1 lb ground beef with 0.5 tsp salt and 0.25 tsp black pepper in a bowl. Mix gently with your hands until just combined, then shape into 2 oval patties about 1 inch thick.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the 2 patties and cook until browned on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side and cooked through, about 4 more minutes. Transfer to a plate.

In the same skillet, pour in the 1 cup demi-glace sauce. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, scraping up any browned bits. Let it bubble until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.

Meanwhile, steam the 2 cups mixed vegetables in a microwave-safe bowl with 2 tbsp water, covered, for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp. In a separate small skillet, fry the 1 egg sunny-side up until the white is set but yolk is runny, about 2 minutes.

Place the patties on plates, spoon the sauce over them, top with the fried egg, and serve with the steamed vegetables on the side.
