  • “DH said he was hungry for hamburger steak with onions and this one looked good.I did make a couple of changes. I added a little worchestershire sauce, cajun seasoning and seasoned italian bread crumbs to the meat and made 3 good sized patties. I used about 3 tbsp of butter to saute the onions which were sprinkled with cajun seasoning.Once they were soft I simply removed them and set aside and then added a couple of tbsp more of butter and fried the patiies for 8 minutes on each side.I then removed them and added a few tbsp of flour to pan and made a light brown roux. I then added the patties, onions, 2 cups of brown gravy (I used a dry mix)and another cup of water to the roux mixture.I covered the pan and brought the gravy to a simmer and cooked for another 15 minutes. DH baked a potato and we split it in half and served the hamburger patty with the onions on top of the potato.Simple, quick and delicious.”
