  • 1 pc Egg (Beaten)
  • 1 pc Onion (Finely diced)
  • 2 tsp Salt

Preparation
  1. In a large bowl, gently mix ground beef, breadcrumbs, beaten egg, diced onion, salt, and pepper.
  2. Form into 6–8 oval-shaped patties. Let them rest while preparing the gravy base.
Cooking
  1. Brown patties in an oven-safe skillet for 3–4 minutes per side until golden; remove and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, sauté sliced onions in butter. Add flour, stir for 2 minutes, then whisk in broth and cream.
  3. Nestle patties into the gravy. Cover tightly and bake at 350°F for 45 minutes, then uncover and bake for an additional 15 minutes.
  4. Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Serve with mashed potatoes, green beans, or bread to enhance the meal. Store leftovers properly to maintain flavor and texture.
