Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb ground beef
1/2 c ground fortune cookies
2 Tbsp beefy or regular dry onion soup mix
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1 large egg
4 oz can of mushrooms
1 3/4 c cold water
1/2 tsp chopped garlic
1 tsp worcestershire sauce
3 Tbsp flour
4 Tbsp heavy cream, half and half or milk

Steps:

1. Mix the ground beef, ground fortune cookies, two tablespoons of the onion soup mix, salt, pepper and egg in a large bowl. Set aside remaining soup mix for later use in gravy. Form this mix into 8 hamburger patties.
2. Cook hamburger patties in a skillet over medium heat until done...about 4 to 5 minutes per side. Set aside to rest.
3. In a small pan or skillet, combine the remaining onion soup mix, garlic, Worcestershire sauce and flour. Drain the mushroom juice from the can into a measuring cup and add the mushrooms to the pan. Add enough water to the mushroom juice to make 1 and 3/4 cups of liquid. Add to the pan. Bring to a boil while stirring. Lower the heat to medium and stir until thickened. Add heavy cream, salt and pepper to taste and re-thicken by cooking slightly longer.
4. Pour gravy over burgers and mashed potatoes and serve with a vegetable.
