Instructions

1. Make the patties

1. In a bowl, mix ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, milk, chopped onion, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper.
2. Form into 4 oval patties.

2. Cook the patties

• Heat 1 tbsp oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat.
• Brown patties on both sides (about 3–4 min per side).
• Remove patties and set aside (they will finish cooking in the gravy).

3. Make the onion gravy

1. In the same skillet, add 2 tbsp butter and sliced onions.
2. Cook until soft and golden, about 5–7 minutes.
3. Sprinkle flour over onions and stir for 1 minute to make a roux.
4. Gradually whisk in beef broth and Worcestershire sauce.
5. Simmer 3–5 minutes until slightly thickened.
6. Season with salt, pepper, and optional cream.

4. Combine and finish cooking

• Return patties to the skillet, spoon gravy over them, and simmer 5–10 minutes until cooked through.

5. Serve

• Over mashed potatoes, rice, or buttered noodles.
• Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.

Pro Tips

• Extra juicy patties: Don’t overmix the beef; gently combine ingredients.
• Gravy boost: Add a splash of red wine or a teaspoon of Dijon mustard.
• Make-ahead: Patties can be formed and refrigerated up to a day in advance; gravy can also be prepped and reheated.
