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.

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

cooking spray
1 pound ground beef chuck
1 cup sliced onion
½ cup water
1 cup sliced mushrooms
1 (12 ounce) jar brown gravy (such as Heinz®)
4 eggs
4 cups cooked rice

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.

LOCO MOCO MAUI STYLE

I must admit-this looks & sounds disgusting!! My husband "discovered" this while on vacation in Maui & has since learned it is a huge local tradition all over the islands. This is the recipe he found in a local cookbook before we left. I haven't tried it myself-but he LOVE, LOVE, LOVES it & swears I would too if I did. The cookbook described it as a delicious heart-attack on a plate...yikes!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh, organic ingredients will make a big difference in the final dish.
  • Cook the rice according to the package directions. Don't overcook or undercook the rice, as this will affect the texture of the loco moco.
  • Season the hamburger patties generously with salt and pepper. This will help to enhance the flavor of the meat.
  • Cook the hamburger patties to your desired doneness. If you like your burgers rare, cook them for less time. If you prefer them well-done, cook them for longer.
  • Make sure the eggs are cooked to your liking. If you like your eggs sunny-side up, cook them for a shorter amount of time. If you prefer them over easy, cook them for a longer amount of time.
  • Serve the loco moco immediately after it is cooked. This will ensure that all of the components are hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

Loco moco is a delicious and easy-to-make Hawaiian dish that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
