What is Salisbury steak?
One of my favorite foods that never goes out of style. It's
easy to make, cheap, and very popular with kids and adults! This home version
is much better than the freezer section of the grocery store. Salisbury makes
the yellowest meat patties to make a steak.
I like to use mostly lean ground beef because it tastes
great but it is low in fat. The meat is seasoned with bread crumbs and then
made into an oval "stack". The patties are cooked until golden brown,
and the gravy is made with onions, mushrooms, beef broth, and a little corn
starch.
Corn starch is used to thicken the gravy. I often use white
button mushrooms, but other types of mushrooms such as creamy mushrooms would
also be a good choice. I use pre-cut mushrooms to save preparation time.

How to make Salisbury steak with mushroom gravy?
This homemade Salisbury stack recipe is easy to put
together. Cooking meat and vegetables in the same pan make the gravy more palatable.
Blend Steak Ingredients:
First, place the crushed onions in a bowl and add the Panko
pieces and stir. Then add the beef, garlic, egg, ketchup, mustard powder,
Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper and mix with your hands.
Cook Steaks:
Mix the mixture into oval patties. Put 2 tablespoons of
olive oil in the pan and heat over low heat. Put beef patties in hot oil and
cook for 5 minutes. Now turn these patties over and cook for another 5 to 6
minutes. Be careful when turning the patties to prevent breakage.
Cook Onions, Garlic & Mushrooms:
Now remove the patties from the pan and set them aside. Put
the pan back on the burner, and add a tablespoon of olive oil. Once the oil is
hot, add finely chopped onion and cook for 1 minute. Then add garlic and
mushrooms and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, or until mushrooms are tender.
Make Gravy:
Put your butter in a pan and let it melt. Sprinkle flour on
butter and vegetables and cook for about 30 seconds. Now put it in beef broth
and stir until everything is well mixed and no lumps remain.
Thicken Gravy:
Put the beef patties and any juice back in the skeleton and
cook for another 5 minutes, or until gravy is thick. (If the gravy gets too
thick, add a little water to the pan.)

TIPS AND TRICKS.

favorite dish if you follow these tips!
Shaping:
Wet your hands with water to prevent the mixture from
sticking, be careful not to over-work the patties. This is how the beef
hardens.
Make it Gluten-Free:
You can use corn starch instead of butter and flour if you
want! Make sauce without butter and flour. Add a tablespoon of corn starch and
a tablespoon of water to the sauce and boil until thickened.
Turkey Steaks:
This dish can be made with ground turkey but I do not
recommend ground turkey breast. It is very lean.
