Ingredients
- 3 beef patties
- 1/2 red onion, chopped
- 3 large eggs
- 2 cheese slices
- 1 tbsp light soy sauce
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 slice bread
- optional fresh lettuce
Instructions
- 1Sear the beef patties

Place three beef patties into a frying pan. Use a spatula to break them into smaller pieces and fry until the meat is fragrant and the fat has rendered.
Tip: Breaking the meat apart ensures even cooking and better flavor extraction. - 2Break down the beef

Place three beef patties into a frying pan over medium heat. Use a spatula to break them apart into smaller, crumbled pieces as they cook and the fat begins to render.
Tip: Breaking the meat into consistent pieces ensures it browns evenly. - 3Season the beef

Once the beef is browned, add chopped red onions to the pan. Season the mixture with light soy sauce, oyster sauce, and a dash of black pepper, stirring everything well to combine the flavors.
Tip: Sautéing the onions with the beef helps sweeten the overall flavor profile of the dish. - 4Add eggs

Pour a mixture of beaten eggs, seasoned with a pinch of salt, evenly over the cooked beef and onion mixture in the pan.
Tip: Keep the heat at medium-low when adding the eggs to prevent them from scrambling too quickly. - 5Add cheese and steam

Place cheese slices directly over the top of the egg and beef mixture. Cover the pan with a lid and let it cook until the eggs are set and the cheese is melted.
Tip: Using a lid traps the heat, which helps melt the cheese perfectly and cooks the top of the eggs. - 6Remove redundant step
