Makes 6 servings<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ingredients<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

4 cups white long grain rice
6 eggs
green onions
kosher salt and ground pepper as needed<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meat Patties<\/strong>
1 lb ground beef 80\/20
1 egg
2 tbsp panko breadcrumbs
1 tbsp worchestershire sauce
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tbsp canola oil
1 tbsp butter<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gravy<\/strong>
1 tbsp olive oil
4 cups beef broth
16oz white mushrooms
1 stick butter
2 tsp soy sauce
2 sprigs thyme
1 tsp granulated sugar
2 tsp dijon mustard<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Procedure<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Cook rice in a covered pot with 1 part rice, 2 parts water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Combine all patty ingredients in a large bowl except butter and oil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mix well and shape into 6 thin patties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heat oil and melt butter in a cast iron skillet; cook patties until brown. Be careful, they cook quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While patties are cooking, start the gravy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mushroom Gravy<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Chop rinse and dry mushrooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Preheat stainless steel saute pan; melt 1\/2 the butter and add olive oil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add mushrooms once oil is hot enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once mushrooms are tender add thyme sprigs and turn to medium, cook for about 2 min.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Push mushrooms to the side and add the rest of the butter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once butter is melted, gradually add 3tbsp flour forming a clumpy roux.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once flour flavor is gone and nutty mushroom flavor is present, add beef broth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mix together and incorporate roux then add soy sauce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If roux is not thick enough, gradually add more flour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Simmer and reduce on medium low heat until thick (about 8min).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add sugar and dijon mustard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Salt and pepper to taste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep heated on low until rice and patties are done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fry eggs to desired done-ness ( I like over medium for mocos).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Layer each moco with rice, patty, gravy, then egg. Garnish with green onions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
