"This classic Hawaiian dish is similar to Japanese hamb?gu, a ground beef patty topped with a ketchup-based sauce, but loco moco is heartier, served atop a pile of white rice, smothered with caramelized onion gravy and topped with a fried egg People in Hawaii enjoy it for breakfast, lunch, dinner or any time in between This version is adapted from “Aloha Kitchen: Recipes From Hawai‘i,” by Alana Kysar, a cookbook of Hawaiian classics...."
