About This Dish:
Japanese hamburg steaks are basically burger patties eaten without buns. It's a very popular dish in Japan, served in many restaurants/cafes/fast food chains and for dinner at home. Beef or pork is usually picked as the choice of ground meat, however I've picked turkey just for a more lean option. For an even healthier option, check out the tofu hamburg recipe or the chicken patty recipe I've posted. Various sauces are used; demi glace, ponzu, teriyaki, ketchup, etc. I've posted a super easy demi glace recipe so check that one out if you've got the time! People of various ages are seen eating this dish in Japan, whether it be children or a senior. You could even make a Hawaiian dish, locomoco with leftovers!

One important tip I have is to make sure the onion is cold upon mixing with the ground meat. If the meat is warm or hot, it causes the juicy fat of the meat to run away, making the patties soggy! :[

Serve with Japanese rice and plenty of veggies! 

What You Need:
(Makes 4 servings)
  • 300g or 10oz of ground meat (I used ground turkey here)
  • 1/2 - 1 onion
  • 1 egg
  • 5 tbsp panko bread crumbs
  • 5 tbsp milk
  • Salt and pepper
  • Oil (I use organic coconut oil from Trader Joes)

1. Chop the onions up into small pieces and heat them up in a pan. Once cooked through, put them aside to cool them down whether it be on the counter or in the fridge. We want the onions to be cool/cold upon mixing with the ground meat!

4. Heat a pan with oil on HIGH heat and place the patties. Brown the surface of both sides.

2. In a separate bowl, soak the panko with the milk.

5. Once both sides are brown, put the heat down, pour in 1/4 cup of water and put the lid on the pan until the water disappears.

3. Mix the ground meat, cooled onions, panko/milk, salt/pepper and stirred egg together until it becomes well blended and sticky. Create the burger patties with your hands. I made 4!

Pour the sauce over it. I chose demi glace! 

You can wrap each left over patty in saran wrap and place them in the freezer for future consumption :)
