A delightful twist on a classic dish, these savory beef patties are cooked in a rich onion gravy, perfect for a comforting meal.
Combine the ground beef, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and flour in a mixing bowl.
Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat, which can make the patties tough.
Shape the mixture into four equal-sized patties.
Make a small indentation in the center of each patty to help them cook evenly.
Heat a frying pan over medium heat and cook the patties until browned on both sides.
Avoid pressing down on the patties while cooking to retain their juices.
Remove the patties from the pan and set aside.
Keep the patties warm by covering them with foil.
Add the sliced onion to the pan and sauté until softened.
Stir frequently to prevent the onions from burning.
Sprinkle the flour over the onions and stir to coat.
This step helps thicken the gravy.
Gradually add the water and bouillon, whisking constantly to prevent lumps.
Adjust the consistency by adding more water if needed.
Return the patties to the pan and simmer in the gravy for 20 minutes.
Cover the pan to keep the moisture in and cook evenly.
Serve the patties with the gravy over mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.
Garnish with fresh parsley for a touch of color and flavor.
