Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Ground beef
- 100 g Bacon, finely chopped
- 1 medium Brown onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 tbsp Butter
- 2 tbsp Plain flour
- 2 cups Beef stock
- 1 tsp Soy sauce
- 1 tbsp Fresh parsley, finely chopped
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped bacon, onion, garlic, breadcrumbs, egg, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly combined.
Shape the mixture into 8 equal-sized patties and set aside on a plate.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties in batches for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked through. Transfer cooked rissoles to a plate and keep warm.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low and add the butter. Once melted, stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, to make a roux.
Gradually add the beef stock to the roux, whisking continuously to prevent lumps. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the gravy thickens.
Stir in the soy sauce and season with additional salt and black pepper to taste.
Serve the rissoles warm, drizzled with the rich gravy, and garnish with fresh parsley. Pair with mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
