Salisbury steak

Here’s a simple way to make Salisbury steak, a classic comfort dish with savory gravy:

Ingredients:

• 1 lb (450 g) ground beef
• 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1 small onion, finely chopped (plus extra for gravy)
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 2 tbsp oil (for frying)

For the gravy:

• 2 tbsp butter
• 2 tbsp flour
• 2 cups beef broth
• 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
• Salt and pepper

Instructions:

1. Make the patties:
   • In a bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, chopped onion, egg, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper.
   • Shape into 4 oval patties.
2. Cook the patties:
   • Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat.
   • Brown the patties on both sides (about 3–4 minutes per side). Remove and set aside.
3. Make the gravy:
   • In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté extra chopped onions until soft.
   • Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute.
   • Gradually whisk in beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Simmer until thickened.
   • Season with salt and pepper.
4. Combine:
   • Return patties to the gravy, cover, and simmer 10–15 minutes until cooked through.
5. Serve:
   • Perfect with mashed potatoes, steamed vegetables, or rice.

💡 Tip: You can add mushrooms to the gravy for extra flavor.

If you want, I can give a shortcut oven version that’s easier and mess-free. Do you want me to do that?
