Ingredients
For the Gravy and Vegetables:
- 6 oz fresh mushrooms thinly sliced
- Half of a medium golden onion cut into slivers
- 1 ½ cups reduced-sodium beef stock
- One 1-oz packet of dry brown gravy mix
- 2 tbsp tomato ketchup
- 1 tsp Dijon-style mustard
- 2 tbsp freshly minced parsley or 2 tsp if using dried
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 4 tbsp cold water
For the Ground Beef Patties:
- 1 ½ lbs lean ground beef
- 1 large egg yolk
- ¼ cup finely chopped onion
- ⅓ cup Japanese-style breadcrumbs Panko
- 3 tbsp milk
- 1 garlic clove finely minced
- ¾ tsp table salt
- ¼ tsp ground black pepper
Instructions
- Scatter the sliced mushrooms and onions across the base of a 6-quart slow cooker.
- In a mixing bowl, blend the ground beef with egg yolk, minced onion, Panko breadcrumbs, milk, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Shape the mixture into six uniform oval patties.
- In a skillet set over medium-high heat, sear the patties for approximately 3 minutes on each side until lightly browned. Transfer the browned patties and arrange them over the mushrooms in the slow cooker.
- Whisk together the beef broth, brown gravy mix, ketchup, mustard, and parsley. Pour this seasoned liquid over the patties.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on the low setting for 5 hours.
- After cooking, gently remove the patties and set aside. Turn the slow cooker to the high setting.
- Stir together the cornstarch and cold water to create a slurry, then whisk it into the hot gravy mixture. Let the sauce cook for a few minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens to your desired consistency.
- Return the beef patties to the thickened gravy, turning to coat them thoroughly.
- Serve warm over mashed potatoes or rice.
