🍽️ Salisbury Steak with Onion Gravy
Ingredients
For the patties:
- 500g ground beef
- 1/3 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp ketchup
- 1 tsp mustard
- Salt & black pepper
For the onion gravy:
- 2 tbsp butter

- Shape into oval patties (like mini steaks).
2. Brown the patties
- Heat a pan over medium heat and cook patties for about 4–5 minutes per side until browned.
- Remove and set aside (they’ll finish cooking later).
3. Prepare the onion gravy
- In the same pan, melt butter and add sliced onions.
- Cook slowly until soft and caramelized (10–15 minutes for best flavor).
4. Make the gravy
- Sprinkle flour over onions and stir for 1–2 minutes.
- Gradually add beef broth while stirring to avoid lumps.
- Add Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper.
5. Simmer together
- Return patties to the pan.
- Cover and simmer for 10–15 minutes until cooked through and the gravy thickens.
💡 Serving Tips
