CHOPPED STEAK AND MUSHROOM ONION GRAVY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine the ground beef, egg, Worcestershire, shallots, garlic, parsley, ground mustard, bread crumbs, flour, and salt and pepper, to taste, in a large bowl. Shape the mixture into 6 equal-sized oval patties and set aside on a plate.
• Heat a large frying pan over medium heat and add the canola oil and butter. When the butter foams add the patties and brown, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer the patties to a 13 by 9-inch baking dish. Drain all of the fat from the pan but leave any browned bits.
• Return the pan to medium heat and melt the butter for the gravy. Add the mushrooms, onion, and thyme and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste. Cook, stirring rarely, until the mushrooms are slightly browned and soft, about 4 minutes. Sprinkle in the flour and mix until fully incorporated. Stir occasionally, until the flour is lightly toasted, about 3 minutes. Add the brandy and stir, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Slowly pour in the stock and stir until smooth. Let the mixture come to a boil and cook until sauce is reduced and thickened, about 8 minutes.
• Taste and add salt and freshly ground black pepper, if needed. Lots of pepper is good in this dish! Pour the sauce over the patties in the baking dish and cover with aluminum foil. Bake until the meat is tender and slightly pink in the middle, about 20 minutes. Remove the dish from the oven and serve.

JAPANESE CHOPPED STEAK

Steps:

• In a large sauté pan, heat the oil with 1 tablespoon of butter, and carmelize onions by frying on med low heat for 15-20 minutes until browned but not blackened.
• While onions are frying, mix meat, breadcrumbs, milk, eggs and salt and pepper, and gently mix.
• When onions are done, allow them to cool enough to handle, and add 3/4 to the beef mixture, and work them inches Form 6 patties, roughly 6 ounces each.
• Wipe the fry pan, add the remaining butter, and cook the patties until nicely browned. Remove to a warmed plate.
• Add the remaining onions and your flour of choice and let them cook for a minute or two while you are stirring it around. Add the curry powder, stir once or twice to break out the spice flavors, and then add the water, ketchup, sake, and soy, stirring the entire time until the sauce comes to a boil and thickens. Make sure to use your wooden spoon to scrape up all the goodies from the bottom of the pan. Taste and adjust the seasoning by either adding more soy or salt depending on what you think it needs. If it is too thick, add water a 1/4 cup at a time, stirring between additions.
• Add the cooked patties back to the gravy to warm them up, and serve immediately with your choice of side dishes.
