Japanese Hamburger Steak (Hambagu)

85% authentic · Japanese-inspired

A Japanese take on hamburger steak, 'Hambagu' is a tender, flavorful patty often served with a sweet and savory demi-glace or ketchup-based sauce, distinct from its American counterpart.

Ingredients

Servings4
  • Ground beef1 lb
  • Ground pork0.5 lb
  • Onion1/2 medium, finely minced
  • Panko breadcrumbs1/2 cup
  • Milk1/4 cup
  • Egg1 large
  • Nutmeg1/4 tsp
  • Ketchup3 tbsp
  • Worcestershire sauce2 tbsp
  • Butter1 tbsp
  • Beef broth1/2 cup
  • Saltto taste
  • Black pepperto taste

Steps

  1. 1

    In a small bowl, soak panko breadcrumbs in milk for 10 minutes. Sauté minced onion in a little oil until softened and translucent; let cool.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, combine ground beef, ground pork, soaked breadcrumbs, cooled sautéed onion, egg, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined.

  3. 3

    Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into thick, oval patties, pressing a slight indentation in the center to prevent puffing.

  4. 4

    Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the patties for 4-5 minutes per side until well-browned. Remove patties and set aside.

  5. 5

    In a small bowl, whisk together ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and beef broth for the sauce.

  6. 6

    Pour the sauce into the skillet and bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits. Return the patties to the skillet, spooning sauce over them.

  7. 7

    Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until cooked through.

  8. 8

    Serve hambagu topped with the sauce.
