Miso Hamburg Steak

Posted October 9th, 2010 in Food 2 Comments »

One day I was thinking about hamburg family restaurants in Japan – Big Boy, Bikkuri Donkey, etc…  Although I’m not really a meat person, I sometime got a craving for a juicy delicious hamburg steak.  Besides, family restaurant was like my nest when I was a teen. 😀

If you want to try Japanese hamburg steak restaurant, try Bikkuri Donkey!  I love the food, and also the atmosphere there.

The other day, I wanted to eat like the hamburg steak plate that you can get from family restaurants.  Hamburg steak, rice, salad, all in one plate.

I mixed miso paste to the mince mixture to add extra flavor.  The patty was soft and fluffy, and it smelled delicious.

With fried egg and special sauce.  Add a cup of soup to make it a perfect “hamburg steak lunch plate”!

<Miso Hamburg Steak> serves 2

• 300g mince (I used 50% beef and 50% pork)
• 1 onion, medium
• 1 egg
• 1 pinch nutmeg
• 2tbs breadcrumb
• 1 tbs miso
• 1 tbs milk

• 100cc white wine

• 1/2 cup white wine
• 1/2 cup water
• 1tbs tomato sauce
• 1 tsp oyster sauce
• 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

a

1. Chop onion finely.  In a mixing bowl, mix the mince, onion, egg, nutmeg, breadcrumb, miso and milk together until well combined.
2. Divide the meat mixture into an uniformed-size balls, and flatten the centre to make them into patties.
3. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a frying pan.  Place the patties and cook over medium-high heat until the bottom side is nicely colored.  Sprinkle salt and pepper on the meat, and pour the white wine around.  Flip the patties, and place a lid.  Cook until the patties are cooked.
4. Mix the ingredients from “sauce”.
5. Serve the hamburg on a plate along with the sauce.
