Homemade Salisbury Steak

• servings: 4 servings
• active time: 20 minutes
• total time: 50 minutes

Ingredients

1 pound ground beef

1 green pepper (finely chopped)

¼ cup bread crumbs

1 large egg

2 teaspoons ketchup

1 teaspoon mustard

½ teaspoon dried parsley

½ teaspoon dried onion powder

¼ teaspoon fine sea salt

1 teaspoon oil

2 tablespoon butter

2 tablespoons flour

1 ½ cups beef stock

1 teaspoon ketchup

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

½ teaspoon dried onion powder

½ pound brown button mushrooms (sliced)

Directions

Make the beef patties

Combine beef mixture:Place all ingredients for the steaks (EXCEPT for the oil) in a large bowl and mix well (I use an electric mixer with the hook attachment because it's way less messy).

Shape patties:Shape beef mixture into 4-6 firm patties. I make a shallow indentation in the middle to help them keep their shape during cooking.

Brown patties:Heat the oil in a large skillet and brown the steaks from both sides, 3-5 minutes each. Remove to a plate.

Cook the gravy

Make roux:In the same skillet (DON'T wipe it!), melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook until starting to brown - do not let it get too dark, or it will be bitter. Pour in the stock, stirring very well.

Season gravy:Season gravy with ketchup, Worcestershire sauce and onion powder, then add the mushrooms, bring to a boil, then simmer for 5 minutes.

Finish cooking the steaks: Place the steaks in the gravy and cook, covered for 10-15 minutes or until cooked through.
