Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1Prepare the eggs
    Two fresh eggs cracked inside a ceramic bowl.

    Crack two fresh eggs into a white ceramic bowl on a wooden board.

    Tip: Ensure no shell fragments fall into the bowl.
  2. 2Add milk
    Milk streaming into a bowl of cracked eggs.

    Pour a little milk into the bowl containing the cracked eggs.

    Tip: Adding a small splash of milk helps make the scrambled eggs softer.
  3. 3Beat the mixture
    Chopsticks whisking eggs and milk in a bowl.

    Use chopsticks to thoroughly whisk and beat the eggs and milk together until well combined.

    Tip: Whisk until uniform in color and texture.
  4. 4Pour into pan

    Pour the beaten egg liquid into a hot non-stick frying pan that has been lightly sprayed with oil.

    Tip: Make sure the pan is properly heated before pouring the eggs.
  5. 5Cook soft scrambled eggs
    Eggs being pushed into the center of a pan with a spatula.

    On low heat, slowly push the cooking eggs from the four sides towards the middle using a spatula to create soft curds.

    Tip: Keep the heat low to achieve a velvety texture.
  6. 6Fry hamburger patties

    Heat oil in a pan and place the raw hamburger patties into the skillet to fry over medium heat.

    Tip: Use store-bought or pre-made beef patties for convenience.
  7. 7Test Hamburger Patty Doneness

    Pike a chopstick into the center of the frying hamburger patty to check for doneness. A chopstick poked in showing no bloody water indicates they are done.

    Tip: Check the center carefully to ensure the meat is fully cooked through without losing too much juice.
  8. 8Add Cheese to Hamburger Patties
    Two slices of yellow cheese melting on top of a cooked hamburger patty in a hot skillet.

    While the patties are still hot from frying, place two slices of yellow cheese on top of each patty, cover the skillet with a lid, and let them simmer on low heat until the cheese melts completely.

    Tip: Covering the pan traps the steam and helps melt the cheese evenly over the meat.
  9. 9Cover and Melt Cheese
    A white paper lid being placed over a skillet to melt cheese on hamburger patties.

    Place a specialized paper lid over the skillet covering the cheese and hamburger patties. Let it simmer on low heat until the cheese melts completely over the hot patties.

    Tip: Keep the heat low so the cheese melts smoothly without burning the bottom of the patties.
  10. 10Sauté Chopped Onions
    Chopped white onions falling into a yellow pot with hot oil on a stove burner.

    Spray a little oil in a yellow pot, pour in chopped onions, and stir-fry them until fragrant and soft.

    Tip: Sauté on medium-low heat to soften the onions evenly without browning them too quickly.
  11. 11Season the Onion Base
    Curry powder and seasonings being sprinkled over sautéed onions inside a yellow cooking pot.

    Season the sautéed onions with 1 tablespoon of curry powder, half a spoon of dark soy sauce, and half a spoon of white sugar, adding more sugar according to your taste.

    Tip: Stir the spices directly into the warm onions briefly to release their full aroma before adding liquids.
  12. 12Pour Coconut Milk
    Coconut milk being poured from a spout into a yellow pot containing the spiced onion mixture.

    Pour 200ml of coconut milk into the pot with the onion and spice mixture. Simmer until it reaches your desired thickness to create a rich curry sauce.

    Tip: Simmer gently and stir occasionally to prevent the coconut milk from curdling.
  13. 13Simmer Coconut Curry Sauce
    Thick yellow curry sauce simmering in a yellow pot while being stirred with a red silicone spatula.

    In a pot with sauteed onions, add curry powder, coconut milk, dark soy sauce, and white sugar. Stir well with a spatula and let the sauce simmer until it reaches your desired thickness.

    Tip: Adjust the amount of white sugar according to your personal taste preference.
  14. 14Layer Scrambled Eggs Over Rice
    Soft yellow scrambled eggs being poured from a bowl directly onto a bed of white rice in a ceramic bowl.

    Prepare a bowl of hot cooked white rice, and carefully transfer the freshly made soft scrambled eggs on top to cover the rice completely.

    Tip: Keep the eggs slightly runny so they remain ultra-soft and creamy against the hot rice.
  15. 15Top with Cheese Hamburger Patties
    A cheesy hamburger patty being lifted with a green spatula and placed over a bed of scrambled eggs and rice.

    Using a spatula, pick up the double-layer cheese hamburger patties and place them directly on top of the soft scrambled eggs and rice layer.

    Tip: Handle carefully to ensure the melted cheese stays intact on top of the patties.
  16. 16Pour Coconut Curry Sauce and Garnish
    Thick coconut curry sauce poured over stacked cheese hamburger patties, eggs, and rice in a bowl.

    Pour the thick coconut curry sauce generously over the top of the hamburger patties and rice, then finish by sprinkling plenty of grated Parmesan cheese and dried parsley.

    Tip: Ensure the curry sauce covers the patties and flows down nicely over the eggs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, homemade beef patties work wonderfully. Just make sure they are fully cooked through before melting the cheese on top.
Cook them strictly on low heat with a splash of milk, and remove them from the pan while they still look slightly wet, as residual heat will finish cooking them.
Classic cheddar or American cheese slices melt smoothly and provide the best gooey texture over the hot patties.
