Ingredients
1 1/2 pounds ground beef
1/3 cup breadcrumbs
1 large egg
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 large onion, thinly sliced
1 1/2 cups sliced mushrooms
2 cups beef broth
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon ketchup
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons cold water
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh chopped parsley (optional)
Instructions
1. In a large bowl, mix ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until just combined. Form into 4–6 oval patties.
2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the patties for about 4 minutes per side until browned. Remove and set aside.
3. In the same pan, add butter, onions, and mushrooms. Sauté over medium heat for 8–10 minutes until caramelized.
4. Stir in beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and ketchup. Scrape the pan to deglaze and bring to a simmer.
5. Mix cornstarch and water to form a slurry. Slowly whisk it into the gravy until it thickens.
6. Return patties to the pan, cover partially, and simmer for 15–20 minutes until cooked through.
7. Adjust seasoning, garnish with parsley if desired, and serve hot over mashed potatoes, noodles, or rice.
Notes
Let the patties rest in the gravy for 5 minutes before serving to soak up extra flavor.
Use low-sodium broth to control the salt level better.
Avoid overmixing the beef mixture to keep the patties tender.
