Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 medium, diced Onion
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 2 cups Beef broth
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Milk or cream
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter.
Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and fully cooked. Drain any excess grease, if necessary.
Sprinkle the flour evenly over the cooked beef and stir well to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.
Gradually pour the beef broth into the skillet while stirring continuously to prevent lumps from forming.
Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, black pepper, and salt. Let the mixture simmer over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, or until it thickens to your desired consistency.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the milk or cream for a richer, creamier flavor. Cook for another 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. If desired, garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve the hamburg gravy hot over mashed potatoes, rice, or biscuits for a comforting meal.
