Instructions
- In a large frying pan, brown the hamburger over medium heat, crumbling it as it cooks until it is fully browned.
- Once the hamburger is cooked, add the minced onion and continue to sauté until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant, approximately 3-5 minutes.
- Sprinkle the flour evenly over the cooked beef mixture and stir thoroughly to combine, ensuring that the flour absorbs the juices from the meat.
- Cook the mixture for an additional 1-2 minutes to eliminate any raw flour taste.
- Gradually add 2 cups of milk to the pan, stirring well to incorporate the flour mixture. Then, add the salt, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, dry mustard, garlic granules, dried parsley, and any additional herbs you prefer.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring frequently, and adjust the consistency by adding more milk as the gravy thickens to your liking.
- Once the gravy reaches your desired thickness, serve it warm over baked potatoes, pasta, rice, or even toast for a hearty and satisfying meal.
This Hamburger Gravy My Way is a simple yet flavorful recipe that is sure to become a staple in your home, offering comfort and satisfaction with every bite. Enjoy!
