Salisbury steak was invented by an American physician, Dr. J. H. Salisbury (1823–1905), an early proponent of a low-carbohydrate diet for weight loss; the term “Salisbury steak” has been in use in the United States since 1897.[1] The dish is popular in the United States, where it is traditionally served with gravy and mashed potatoes or noodles. . . . via Wikipedia
Dr. Salisbury was spot on with this recipe. It is easy, delicious and inexpensive. I remember as a child, my mother buying those big tin’s of pre-made, frozen salisbury steaks as a cheap way to feed her family of 8 children. I always loved them. But homemade make those great little steaks seem like cardboard imitations for something that is so delicious.
- 2 Thinly Sliced Large Red Onions
- 2 Tbsp Butter
- 2 Tbsp Flour
- 3 Cups Beef Stock
- 1/2 Dry Red Wine (Optional)
- 1 Tbsp Tomato Paste
- 1 Teaspoon Apple Cider Vinegar
- Salt & Pepper To Taste
- Beef Patties
- 1 Lbs Lean Ground Beef
- 1/2 Cup Cooked White or Brown Rice
- 1 Egg Yolk
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1/4 tsp Pepper
- 1 Clove Minced Garlic
- 1 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
- 3 Tbsp Chopped Fresh Parsley
- 1/2 tsp Dried Thyme
- 1 Tbsp Olive Oil
- Gravy: Heat butter in large saute pan. Add onions and cook over medium heat until onions start to brown – stir occasionally. When onions begin to soften and become transparent, add 1/4 cup beef stock.
- Reduce heat, cover and continue cooking adding broth as needed to prevent burning. This process should take at least 30 minutes to properly caramelize your onions. Stir in flour and cook for about 3 minutes. Add wine and reduce by half. Stir in remaining beef broth and tomato paste. Stir in apple cider vinegar and simmer for 10 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Reduce heat to low and keep warm.
- Beef Patties: Mix ground beef, rice, egg yolk, salt pepper, garlic, Worcestershire, parsley and thyme in a bowl. Shape into 4 oval patties, approximately 3/4 inch thick. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear patties on each side or until they develop a nice crust. Pour gravy over your patties and simmer for 10-15 minutes. Serve warm over mashed potatoes or egg noodles.
