Ingredients with Measurements:
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion, sliced
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 tbsp tomato paste
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp dried rosemary
Special equipment needed:
- Large mixing bowl
- Large skillet
- Whisk
- Measuring cups and spoons
Step-by-step instructions:
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.
2. Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into an oval-shaped patty.
3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked through. Remove the patties from the skillet and set aside.
4. In the same skillet, add sliced onions and mushrooms. Cook for 5-6 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and lightly browned.
5. Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and stir well to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the flour is lightly browned.
6. Gradually pour in beef broth, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Add tomato paste, thyme, and rosemary. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
7. Return the patties to the skillet and spoon the onion and mushroom sauce over them. Cover the skillet and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the patties are heated through and the sauce is bubbly.
8. Serve hot with your choice of side dishes.
