MEAT ROLL WITH GRAVY

Meat Roll with Gravy image

I came up with this recipe one day when I only had 1 lb of hamburger, onions, spices, and ingredients to make biscuits to include cornstarch and 5 kids and a husband to feed. Like my husband has told me I can make something out of nothing.

Brush with melted butter, spread 1/2 the meat on top of biscuit dough, set the rest of the meat to the side. Spread chopped onion across the biscuit dough. (You may add shredded cheese if you like for appetizers) Roll biscuit dough up as if you are making cinnamon rolls make sure the roll is tight and pinch edges. Place seam down, using a serrated knife and flour. Dip knife into flour after each slice. Slice 1/2 inch thick and place onto cookie sheet, brush each with melted butter. Bake approximately 30 minutes or till golden brown.

If you need more cornstarch repeat last step of cornstarch and water or milk, Worcestershire Sauce. You may thin down with water or milk also. Cook till gravy comes to a boil stirring constantly.
5. After meat rolls are baked remove, serve hot and spoon gravy over meat rolls. They can be eaten cold also.
