A woman's face.Angie Zoobkoff
This one-pot meal of tender beef patties in rich mushroom gravy is inexpensive, hearty, and oh-so-satisfying.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 large egg
  • cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ teaspoon salt plus more to taste
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper plus more to taste
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable or olive oil divided
  • 1 medium onion thinly sliced
  • 8 ounces cremini mushrooms sliced
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, combine the beef, egg, breadcrumbs, Worcestershire sauce, and ½ teaspoon each salt and pepper. Mix well.
  • Shape the meat mixture into 4 even balls.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the meat balls to the skillet and use a spatula to flatten each one slightly. Cook, flipping once, until browned on each side, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate. (The meat will still be raw inside. That's ok.)
  • Reduce the heat to medium low and add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet. Stir in the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Add the mushrooms and cook until they begin to release their liquid, 5 to 6 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Slowly pour in the broth, stirring constantly. Stir in the Dijon mustard.
  • Bring the gravy to a simmer, then nestle the beef patties in the gravy. Simmer gently, turning the patties once, until cooked through to an internal temperature of 160°F, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve hot.

Notes

  • Get ahead--To get ahead, mix and shape the meat patties and freeze in an airtight container or resealable bag for up to 3 months. Thaw completely in the refrigerator before cooking.
  • Stop it from sticking--To prevent your spatula from sticking to the meat when pressing it, spray the bottom side of your spatula with cooking spray.
  • Dietary--This recipe is suitable for dairy-free diets.
