Preparation:

Step 1
• Creamed spinach:
  
  Place some ice and cold water in a bowl. Bring a saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the spinach, cook for 2 minutes, and then transfer to the ice water to stop the cooking. Drain the spinach in a colander and then squeeze it out with your hands.
Step 2
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onion, garlic, and 1/4 teaspoon salt and sauté, stirring frequently, until the onion is softened but not browned, about 6 minutes. Add the flour and stir. Cook, stirring constantly to prevent the onion from burning, for 3 minutes.
Step 3
• Stir in the milk and cook until no lumps remain. Reduce the heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook the sauce for 3 minutes. Stir in the cream, bring to a boil, and add the spinach. Add the nutmeg, cayenne pepper, and 2 teaspoons of salt. Cook for another 2 minutes and season with salt to taste. Keep warm.
Step 4
• In a large, wide, heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat about 7 cm of vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 190°C on a deep-fry thermometer.
Step 5
• Onion rings:
  
  In a medium bowl, combine the flour, Old Bay seasoning, and baking powder. Slowly add the sparkling water and mix until smooth. Dip each onion ring in the batter to coat evenly and fry until golden brown and crisp, about 2 minutes. Drain the rings on paper towels and immediately season with salt.
Step 6
• Steak:
  
  Place a large skillet over high heat. Heat until smoking. Pat the steak dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper. Add a little oil to the hot skillet and carefully add the steak. Cook the steak without moving it for 4 minutes, then flip and cook for another 4 minutes until medium-rare. Let the steak rest for 3 minutes before slicing.
Step 7
• Sandwiches:
  
  Spread 1/4 cup warm creamed spinach on the bottom halves of the buns. Cut each steak in half or into desired size pieces and arrange them on top of the spinach. Top with a fried egg and top with the bun tops. Serve with onion rings.
