Hamburger Gravy Recipe
Ingredients
1 lb ground beef
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
3 tbsp all-purpose flour
2 cups beef broth
1 cup milk (or heavy cream for extra richness)
Salt and pepper, to taste
Optional: 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce for added depth
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Brown the Beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it up as it cooks. Drain excess grease if needed.
Add Onion and Garlic: Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for about 3-5 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.
Add Flour: Sprinkle the flour over the meat and stir well, cooking for 1-2 minutes to get rid of the raw flour taste.
Add Broth and Milk: Slowly pour in the beef broth, stirring constantly, and then add the milk. Continue stirring as it begins to thicken.
Season: Add salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce, if desired. Let the gravy simmer for 5-10 minutes until it reaches your desired consistency.
Serve: Spoon the hamburger gravy over mashed potatoes, rice, or biscuits. Garnish with chopped parsley for a fresh touch.
