We've had a bit of a hiatus on keeping up with trying new recipes, but mostly it's because we were having new experiences traveling in South America to see a total eclipse of the sun, and tasting wine.
But we're back now and ready to take on some new cooking challenges. James made cheeseburgers on Wednesday night, and we had about 1/2 pound of leftover ground beef so I went to the New York Times cooking page to find something new we could do with it. Loco Moco is a Hawaiian dish. I selected it because we already had much of what we needed. It was a bit tricky getting everything timed to be ready at the same time (burgers, fried eggs, rice, caramelized onion) and that was without actually making the gravy indicated in step four.
The result was good, and flavorful. I found that I liked it best when I had a taste of everything on my fork and I expect it would have been better with the gravy. Next time I will not skip that part.
