In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, egg, breadcrumbs, milk, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined. Divide into four equal portions and shape into patties.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef patties to the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until browned. Remove the patties from the skillet and set aside.
Slice the onion into thin rings. In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the onion and mushrooms to the pan, cooking for 5-7 minutes, or until softened and lightly browned.
Sprinkle the flour over the onion and mushrooms. Stir constantly for 1-2 minutes to cook the flour and form a roux.
Gradually pour in the beef broth while stirring. Add the soy sauce and mix well, ensuring there are no lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it thicken slightly, about 3-4 minutes.
Return the beef patties to the skillet, spooning some of the gravy over the top. Cover the skillet, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the patties are fully cooked and the gravy is rich and flavorful.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired. Serve hot with mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables.
