  • For the Beef Patties:
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 egg

  • For the Gravy:

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Beef Patties: In a bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, salt, and pepper. Mix until fully combined. Form the mixture into patties.
  • Cook the Beef Patties: Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes per side or until browned and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  • Make the Gravy: In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in flour to make a roux and cook for 1-2 minutes. Gradually whisk in beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Stir continuously until the gravy thickens, about 3-5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Prepare the Mashed Potatoes: Boil potatoes in a large pot of salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain the potatoes, then mash them with milk, butter, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
  • Assemble the Meal: Serve the beef patties on a plate with mashed potatoes on the side, then pour the gravy over the top.
