HAWAIIAN LOCO MOCO

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.

HAWAIIAN LOCO MOCO BURGERS

Steps:

• Gently mix the ground beef, 1 tablespoon teriyaki sauce, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Form into four 4 1/2-inch patties. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook until browned, about 3 minutes per side for medium. Transfer to a platter.
• Add the mushrooms to the skillet and cook until browned, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle in the flour and stir until lightly toasted, about 1 minute. Whisk in the beef broth, ginger and remaining 2 teaspoons teriyaki sauce. Simmer over medium-high heat until reduced to a thick gravy, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon butter in another large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet, reduce the heat to medium and partially cover. Cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Serve the burgers on the buns; top with the mushroom gravy and fried eggs; drizzle with Sriracha. Serve with pasta salad and pickles.

LOCO MOCO

Steps:

• Burgers:.
• 1. Gently mix the hamburger, grated 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... like 3 scoops worth per plate.

CARAMELIZED ONION LOCO MOCO

Steps:

• Reserve a few sliced scallion greens for garnish.
• Heat a large heavy sauté pan or wok over a medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil and swirl to coat the pan. When the oil is hot, add the onions, season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook until caramelized, 10-12 minutes. Set the onions aside. Reserve the pan.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the beef, scallions, the garlic and 1 tablespoon of the soy sauce and season with pepper. Mix and form gently into 4 patties about ½ inch thick. Make an indentation with your thumb in the middle of each patty.
• Heat the pan over a medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon of the oil and swirl to coat the pan. Season the patties on both sides with salt and pepper, transfer to the pan and cook, turning once, for about 4 minutes for medium-rare, 5 minutes for well-done. Transfer the patties to a plate to rest for 5 minutes.
• Return the pan to medium heat, and add the onions. Pour in the stock, bring to a simmer and add the remaining 1 teaspoon soy sauce. Whisk in the cornstarch slurry and simmer until the sauce is lightly thickened, about 1 minute . Taste to adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper, if necessary.
• Break the eggs into a bowl. Heat a medium nonstick sauté pan over medium heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil, and when hot, gently slide in the eggs.
• Cook for about 1 minute, turn and cook for about 2 minutes until the whites are set and the yolks are still soft. (If you prefer your eggs sunny side up, add the eggs, cover, cook for about 1 minute, uncover, then cook until the whites are set and the yolks are still soft, 2 to 3 minutes). Season with salt and pepper.
• Divide the rice among 4 soup plates or serving bowls, top with the burgers and top with the onions. With a nonmetal spatula, separate the eggs, transfer to the onions, garnish with the reserved scallion greens and serve.
