Asian Moco
Here I've taken Hawaiian Loco Moco and added some Asian flavors. You can essentially add any seasonings to this you wish to. This is simply comfort food. The results have been accepted and enjoyed by friends and family. Now I share it with you.
Ingredients:
- 1 egg
- 1 pork hamburger patty
- ½ small white onion
- 1 or 2 small yellow/baby Yukon Gold Potato
- Asian BBQ sauce (homemade - recipe below)
- 1 pkg country gravy or homemade white gravy *(recipe below)
(or - ½ cup brown gravy (package or homemade) Personal choice which)
- ¼ to ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
Directions:
- Cut onion into small slices and set aside.
- Using the large holes of a box grater, grate potato and place in a bowl. Pour water over potato until
covered and let soak for about 5 to 10 minutes. This will prevent discoloration and help remove the
starch. Then, Pour water out (I strain through a colander) and put potato on paper towel and squeeze
out as much water as you can.
- Follow directions below for homemade gravy or directions on package of mix.
- Cook sausage patty in small pan on medium heat.
- Put butter in pan on medium-high heat and once melted spread potatoes in pan. Cook until brown on
one side, turn over and finish cooking. Transfer potatoes to serving plate.
- Sausage and potatoes should finish about the same time. Put sausage on potatoes. Next place onion
on both.
- Cook over easy egg on medium low heat. Take your time, be patient and egg will come out perfect.
- When gravy is done, leave it on low temp.
- Sprinkle cheddar cheese on onion, sausage and potatoes. Pour gravy over all.
- When egg is done, place on top of gravy and enjoy.
*White Gravy
Ingredients:
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 1 cup milk plus 1-2 optional tablespoons (depending on your —preference of thicker or thinner gravy)
- salt and pepper (to taste)
Directions:
- In small saucepan, melt butter.
- Once butter is melted, add the flour and whisk. It will look like the consistency of wet sand.
- Slowly add the milk, and whisk to incorporate. Whisk until smooth.
- Gravy will thicken, add in the additional milk if you want a thinner gravy.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
*Homemade Asian BBQ Sauce
In a small container (such as a tasting container) combine 1 part Sambal-Oelek and 2 parts Sweet Chinese Chili Sauce, mix and set aside.
