Loco Moco
This Loco Moco recipe is a delicious, 'stick to your ribs' Hawaiian dish that can be eaten for breakfast, lunch or dinner. My recipe uses a simple mushroom gravy for an extra savory, umami touch!
The first time I ever tried Loco Moco was in Hawaii. I was on vacation with my family and we were ordering breakfast. I had never heard of Loco Moco, but the name made me smile and all the components sounded delicious. Little did I know I was about to enjoy one of the biggest breakfasts of my life!
I instantly became a huge fan – the rich and juicy burger patty, fried egg, and creamy gravy were balanced nicely with the bed of white rice. It was definitely the type of meal that made me want to take a nap, but it was also so delicious and memorable. My version is based off the first one I ever had which came with a mushroom gravy!
