CHEF JOHN'S LOCO MOCO

This amazing Hawaiian comfort food classic is made by topping rice with a fried burger, which is then smothered with a rich, brown gravy and finished with a fried egg. Seriously, how did it take until 1949 for someone to think of this combination? We all get hangry sometimes, so whether you're a broke student or an older professional who just wishes you were, this cheap, filling bowl of goodness is the perfect solution. Garnish with green onions.

Steps:

  • Season patties with salt, pepper, and cayenne.
  • Whisk beef stock, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, sesame oil, ketchup, sugar, and cornstarch together in a bowl.
  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook patty in the hot skillet until a browned crust forms on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Flip; toss in green onions and cook the other side until both beef and onions are browned, 4 to 5 minutes more. Remove patty and most of the green onions to a plate.
  • Pour beef stock mixture into the skillet. Stir, scraping up browned bits from the bottom, until thickened, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low and reserve gravy until needed.
  • Melt remaining butter in another skillet over medium heat. Add eggs to the skillet and fry side-by-side until whites are set and yolks are still runny.
  • Divide rice between 2 serving bowls. Place patties over the rice, spoon gravy on top, and add the fried eggs.

Steps:

  • Burgers:.
  • 1. Gently mix the hamburger,onions and salt/pepper. Form either 2 big patties or 4 smaller size patties.
  • 2. Heat frying pan until very hot.
  • 3. Place hamburger patties on the pan/grill and let sear just until juices start appearing on the top. Flip over and cook for a couple more minutes. You will want the burger slightly charred but still tender on the inside.
  • 4. Place burgers on the side.
  • Gravy:.
  • 1. Pour a little broth into the same pan and incorporate the yumyums, then pour in the rest of the broth.
  • 2. Bring to a boil and let reduce for about 3-5 minutes or so, depending on taste, for a more potent gravy.
  • 3. Turn down heat to a simmer.
  • 4. Add couple dashes of worcestershire sauce.
  • 5. In a seperate bowl, mix flour with some water.
  • 6. Using a whisk, slowly whisk in the flour/water mixture until gravy is nicely thick & smooth.
  • 7. Turn off heat and mix in the butter until well blended.
  • Eggs:.
  • Traditionally, the eggs should be sunny-side up. The secret to a good fried egg is to fry the egg slowly on low heat until it's cooked... just don't overcook it! It also helps to have the eggs thawed to room temperature before cooking them.
  • Rice:.
  • Use regular medium grain white rice... stir fry with other ingredients.
  • Assembly (bottom -> top):.
  • Rice -> Burger -> Egg -> Gravy all over.
  • Optional condiments:.
  • Shoyu, ketchup, tabasco.

HAWAIIAN LOCO MOCO

I ate this at a sports bar/cafe on the big island of Hawaii. This is a local dish served many ways, but this version is my favorite. They usually make it with SPAM®. Also you can make this using leftover rice, pre-cooked burgers, and jarred sauce.

Steps:

  • Prepare a large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat.
  • Divide ground chuck into 4 equal portions; form into patties.
  • Fry patties in skillet until beginning to firm and are hot and slightly pink in the center, about 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Remove patties to a plate, retaining drippings in the skillet.
  • Stir onion and water into the reserved drippings. Reduce heat to low and cook until the onions are slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Stir mushrooms into the onion mixture; cook until mushrooms are cooked through, about 5 minutes more.
  • Pour gravy over the onion and mushroom mixture; stir. Cook until the gravy is hot, about 5 minutes. Gently lie patties into the gravy; simmer until reheated through.
  • While the patties simmer in gravy, prepare a separate skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Fry eggs in the hot skillet until the white is opaque but the yolk remains runny, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Divide rice between 4 plates. Top each rice portion with a beef patty and top the patties each with an egg. Pour gravy equally over each portion.
