Ingredients
1 ½ pounds ground beef (80/20)
½ cup breadcrumbs
1 large egg
½ medium yellow onion, finely diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 ½ cups beef broth
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons butter, divided
4 medium russet potatoes, peeled and chopped
½ cup milk or heavy cream
1 cup mushrooms, sliced
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
1. Peel and chop potatoes; boil in salted water until tender, about 15–20 minutes. Drain and mash with butter, milk, salt, and pepper. Keep warm.
2. Mix ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, onion, garlic, Worcestershire, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Form into 4–6 oval patties.
3. Sear patties in a skillet over medium-high heat, 3–4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
4. Sauté mushrooms and remaining onion in butter until golden. Add flour and stir for 1–2 minutes. Slowly add beef broth, whisking until smooth.
5. Return patties to skillet and simmer in gravy, covered, for 10–15 minutes until cooked through.
6. Serve steaks over mashed potatoes with mushroom gravy. Garnish with parsley.
Notes
Don’t overwork the meat when mixing to keep the patties tender.
For extra creaminess, use heavy cream instead of milk in the mashed potatoes.
