Ingredients
- 500 g Ground beef, lean
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 50 g Bread crumbs, unseasoned
- 60 ml Milk, low fat
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.25 tsp Nutmeg, ground
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 200 g Mushrooms, sliced
- 250 ml Beef broth, low sodium
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce, low sodium
- 1 tbsp Cornstarch
- 2 tbsp Water
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, onion, garlic, bread crumbs, milk, egg, black pepper, and nutmeg. Mix by hand until the ingredients are just combined. Avoid over-mixing to keep the patties tender.
Step 2
Form the mixture into four equal patties, about 1 cm thick, and set aside.
Step 3
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the patties and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side until they are well-browned and cooked through. Remove the patties from the skillet and keep them warm.
Step 4
In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and sauté the sliced mushrooms until they are soft and golden brown, about 4-5 minutes.
Step 5
Pour in the low sodium beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
Step 6
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water to create a slurry. Add this to the sauce in the skillet and stir until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.
Step 7
Return the patties to the skillet, coating them with the mushroom sauce. Allow them to simmer in the sauce for a couple more minutes to absorb the flavors.
Step 8
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve the Hamburg steaks hot with your choice of side dishes.
