🔪 Instructions:

1. Make the Salisbury Steaks:

1. In a bowl, mix together beef, onion, breadcrumbs, egg, ketchup, Worcestershire, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

2. Shape into 4–5 oval patties.

3. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high. Sear patties for about 4–5 minutes per side until browned (they don’t have to be fully cooked through yet).

4. Transfer to a plate.

2. Prepare the Gravy:

1. In the same skillet, add butter and oil. Sauté mushrooms and onions until golden (6–8 minutes).

2. Add garlic, cook for 30 seconds.

3. Sprinkle in flour, cook 1 minute while stirring.

4. Slowly add beef broth while stirring to avoid lumps.

5. Add Worcestershire, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer.

6. Return patties to the skillet. Cover and simmer for 10–15 minutes until steaks are fully cooked and gravy thickens.

3. Make Mashed Potatoes:

1. Boil potatoes in salted water until fork-tender (15–20 minutes).

2. Drain and mash with warm milk, butter, and optional sour cream or cream cheese.

3. Season with salt to taste.
