Easy Peasy Loco Moco Recipes

CHEF JOHN'S LOCO MOCO

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:

• The patties. Combine all the ingredients together and make 4 patties. Heat the oil in a skillet an fry the patties until desired doneness. I did like 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
• The gravy. Use the same skillet you used for cooking the patties. Scrape up the browned bits of the meat. Melt the butter. Whisk in the flour and continue whisking until you get a light-brown paste. Slowly pour in the broth, whisking continually until the flour is combined with the broth. Bring to a boil, reduce to simmer, add the Worcestershire sauce and cook for 5 minutes more. Season to taste.
• The assembly. Serve the patties over the cooked rice and top each patty with the fried egg. Pour the gravy over the top and enjoy!

Steps:

• For the rice: Wash the rice under cold running water until the water runs clear. In a medium saucepot over high heat, bring the chicken broth to boil. Add the rice, cover and reduce the heat to low for about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let stand for 5 minutes. (Alternatively, add both the rinsed rice and the chicken broth to a rice cooker and turn the machine on - it will keep the rice warm until ready to serve.) Fluff with a fork and cover. Keep warm until ready for use.
• For the burgers: Mix the ground beef, onions and some salt and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Form 4 medium patties and set aside.
• Set a large cast-iron pan over high heat. Add a drizzle of canola oil and set the patties in the pan. Cover pan with a lid (or a second pan) to seal in the moisture and ensure juicy patties. Cook until well browned on first side, 3 to 4 minutes. Then remove the lid, flip over, replace the lid and continue cooking to desired doneness, about 3 minutes for medium-rare. Remove the burgers and keep warm.
• For the gravy: Add the butter to the pan with the drippings. Saute the mushrooms and onions until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, bring to a boil and reduce down for 2 to 3 minutes.
• In a separate bowl, mix the cornstarch with 1 tablespoons water to make a smooth paste. Slowly add into the gravy, stirring constantly until thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and keep warm until ready for use.
• For the eggs: Add some canola oil to a nonstick saute pan over medium heat. Crack in the eggs and cook sunny-side up, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove and keep warm. (You can flip the eggs over-easy if you want them cooked a little more.)
• To serve: Place the cooked rice on a plate, place the burgers on top, then the eggs and finally the gravy. Garnish with parsley and tomato if desired.

Steps:

• Season ground beef patties with salt, pepper and garlic powder to your liking.
• Slice mushrooms and dice shallots.
• Mix water with mushroom seasoning, sugar, ketchup, fish sauce and light soy sauce. Whisk and then add corn starch and whisk thoroughly and set aside.
• Fry up the beef patties. I like to fry mine on medium to medium-high heat to give the outside a nice crust and the inside stays medium to medium rare. This should take about 3-4 minutes each side.
• Set fried patties aside. Drain off some of the oil from the pan.
• Use the same pan to Sauté the shallots. Sauté for 2-3 minutes.
• Add the mushrooms and Sauté for another 2-3 minutes.
• Whisk your sauce thoroughly to make sure the corn starch is not stuck to the bottom of the bowl. Add the sauce to the shallots and the mushrooms. Cook gravy for 3-4 minutes until it has a nice thick consistency. Once done, set aside.
• Fry the eggs sunny side up.
• Start the plating with Jasmine rice. Then put a beef patty on top followed by a fried egg. Then pour a generous amount of the mushroom gravy over the entire plate. The gravy is what makes this dish absolutely delicious in my opinion.

Steps:

• 1. Mix burger ingredients together in a bowl. Form hamburger balls and flatten them out to the desired thickness. The size of the ball will determine the size of the patty. Grill or fry your patties until a little charred, but not burnt. Juices from the patties will come to the top, which you'll want to see. Then set aside.
• 2. Use the same pan and juices from the burgers to make the gravy. Add in the butter & broth & mix well scraping up the bites from the pan. Then add in a litle flour to make it thick. Ifneed be taste to see if you need to add in salt or pepper.
• 3. Cook the eggs to your liking. In a regular loco moco, the eggs are sunny side up.
• 4. Plate your meal by Scoop rice and place it on the bottom of the plate. Place the hamburger onto the rice. Place your eggs on top of the hamburger. Drizzle gravy as the topping of the meal.
