Need a quick weeknight meal? Try this easy hamburger recipe. It's basically a hamburger gravy and will make everyone happy. We tried it on toast and mashed potatoes. We loved it both ways... so serve on what you have available. Comfort food at its finest.

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 1/2 lb ground beef
1/2 c all-purpose flour
4 c cold liquids (milk & water) see note in step #3.
Some salt & pepper, optional

Steps:

  • 1. Brown ground beef in a large skillet, stirring often. Do NOT drain. WARNING: Product Endorsement. I love my ChopStir when I'm cooking ground beef! It's the best kitchen gadget EVER! (OK, I'm finished.)
  • 2. Sprinkle the flour over the ground beef and stir for about 5 minutes, which will lightly brown the flour and soak up the grease.
  • 3. Now, it's time to add the cold liquids. I personally use about 3 cups of milk & 1 cup of cold water, but this is a personal decision. If I'm low on milk, I just make up the difference in cold water. No one has ever noticed yet. =^..^= So add the liquids and stir well.
  • 4. Add salt & pepper, if desired. Continue cooking the gravy for a few more minutes until it thickens to your desired consistency. If it's too thin, cook it longer. If it's too thick, add a little more cold liquid.
  • 5. Serve over slices of toast (the "shingles" of SOS fame; see note above) and/or mashed potatoes. Or skip the knife and tear up the toast pieces before adding the gravy. Just keeping it simple, right? =^..^=
