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

Ingredients

  • 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

Directions

  1. Grease a large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat.

  2. Divide ground chuck into four equal portions; form into patties.

  3. Fry patties in the hot skillet until they begin to firm, are hot, and are 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.

  4. Stir onion and water into reserved drippings. Reduce heat to low and cook until onion is slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms; cook and stir until mushrooms are cooked through, about 5 minutes more.

  5. Pour gravy over onion-mushroom mixture; stir. Cook until gravy is hot, about 5 minutes. Gently lie patties into gravy; simmer until reheated through.

  6. While patties simmer in gravy, grease a separate skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Fry eggs in the hot skillet until whites are opaque, but yolks remain runny, 2 to 3 minutes.

  7. Divide cooked rice between four plates. Top each rice portion with a beef patty and cover each patty with an egg. Pour gravy equally over each portion.
