This was my Mother's recipe. So very good. The gravy is perfect with mashed potatoes or wide egg noodles.

4 slice bread, torn into small pieces

Steps:

  • 1. saute onions til soft and starting to brown, I use my 10 inch cast iron frying pan.
  • 2. add all ingredients to mixing bowl except bread crumbs, flour and broth, mix thoroughly. add enough bread crumbs to form soft patties.
  • 3. form into eight patties and add them to the pan you saute your onions in. brown on all sides
  • 4. When patties are browned on all sides, add beef broth to about half way up the patties in the pan, I used 2 cups. lower heat to a simmer and cook covered for an hour, turning occasionally
  • 5. When finished cooking, remove patties from pan, whisk in flour to make gravy. add patties back to the pan with the gravy and serve over noodles, rice, potatoes, your choice
