DIRECTIONS

  1. Combine beef, breadcrumbs, egg, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce.

  3. Cook patties in a skillet in a little oil for 10 minutes, or until both sides are brown.
  4. Add stock, onion slices, mushrooms, and garlic to the skillet.
  5. Heat to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes.
  6. Remove patties from the skillet, and keep them warm.
  7. Bring the onion mixture to a boil.
  8. Combine water and cornstarch.
  9. Add the water and cornstarch mixture to the onion mixture.
  10. Bring to a boil while stirring constantly for 1 minute.
  11. Put the meat back into the pan to warm up, then cover it with sauce. Place it on a platter and serve.
