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. 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.

  2. 2

    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.

  3. 3

    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.

  4. 4

    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.

  5. 5

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