Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef (or a mix of beef)
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg
  • 1 small onion, grated or finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tbsp tomato ketchup or BBQ sauce
  • 1 tsp dried herbs (thyme, oregano, or parsley)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp olive oil or vegetable oil (for frying)
  • For the mushroom gravy:
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix together ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, grated onion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup or BBQ sauce, dried herbs, salt, and pepper until just combined.
  2. Shape the mixture into palm-sized patties and refrigerate for 10–15 minutes to firm up.
  3. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook rissoles for 4–5 minutes per side until browned and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, melt butter. Add chopped onion and sauté until softened, then add garlic and mushrooms. Cook until mushrooms are golden brown.
  5. Stir in flour and cook for 1–2 minutes. Slowly whisk in beef broth, then add Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Simmer until thickened.
  6. Return rissoles to the pan, spoon gravy over them, and simmer on low for 5 minutes.
  7. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with mashed potatoes, rice, or steamed vegetables.

Notes

Refrigerating the patties helps them hold their shape during cooking.Add grated carrot or zucchini to the meat mixture for extra moisture and nutrition.Use gluten-free breadcrumbs and cornstarch instead of flour for a gluten-free version.Both rissoles and gravy freeze well separately for make-ahead meals.
