Hamburger steak smothered in brown gravy with mushrooms and onions is a classic and comforting dish. Here’s a simple recipe for you to try:

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 egg
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup sliced onions
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • Chopped fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Hamburger Steak:
    • In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, minced garlic, egg, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
    • Shape the mixture into oval or round patties, about 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick.
  2. Cook the Hamburger Steak:
    • Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
    • Add the hamburger patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are browned and cooked through. Remove the patties from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Prepare the Gravy:
    • In the same skillet, add a bit more oil if needed. Add the sliced mushrooms and onions. Cook until they are softened and browned.
    • Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and onions, stirring constantly to coat them in the flour.
    • Gradually whisk in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce. Continue whisking until the mixture thickens to make a smooth gravy.
  4. Combine and Simmer:
    • Return the cooked hamburger patties to the skillet, spooning some of the gravy over the top.
    • Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for an additional 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  5. Serve:
    • Serve the hamburger steaks smothered in brown gravy with mushrooms and onions over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles.
    • Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.

Enjoy your delicious and hearty meal!
