Finely chop the onion and set aside. In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and milk. Allow the mixture to soak while preparing the other ingredients.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, soaked breadcrumbs, egg, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Mix gently but thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Form the beef mixture into four equal patties and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the patties to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Remove the patties from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add butter and let it melt. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Sprinkle the flour over the onions and stir continuously for about 1-2 minutes to cook the flour.
Gradually whisk in the beef broth, ensuring there are no lumps. Add the Worcestershire sauce and let the gravy simmer until thickened, about 3-5 minutes.
Return the beef patties to the skillet, allowing them to heat through and soak up some of the gravy flavors for about 2-3 minutes.
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately, with mashed potatoes or rice on the side, if desired.
