For the Patties
- 1 lb (450 g) ground beef

- Shape into 4 oval patties.
2️⃣ Cook the Patties
- Heat a skillet over medium heat with a little oil.
- Brown patties 3–4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
3️⃣ Make the Gravy
- In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté onions (and mushrooms) until soft.
- Sprinkle flour over onions and cook 1–2 minutes.
- Gradually stir in beef broth and Worcestershire sauce.
- Simmer until thickened, about 5–7 minutes.

🍽️ Serving Tips
- Serve with mashed potatoes, rice, or buttered noodles.
- Garnish with fresh parsley for color.
- Add a side of steamed vegetables like green beans or carrots.
💡 Tips
- Do not overmix the beef to keep patties tender.
- For extra flavor, add a dash of soy sauce or a splash of red wine to the gravy.
- Salisbury steak can be made ahead and reheated gently in the gravy.
