Hamburger Steak & Spaghetti Recipe

The husband asked if I would attempt to make hamburgers after stocking up on so much minced beef recently and that gave me an idea to reinvent my Meatballs with Gravy Recipe into a hamburger steak instead. For this recipe, I didn’t cook the patties in the oven as that might just dry them out so I pan-fried them with sunflower oil and gave them a golden crust on the outside. Tasted thick, meaty, juicy and extremely flavoursome with the chicken stock gravy. Of course if you do not want pasta, you can have these patties in burger buns with fillings of your choice to create your own wholesome burger. Unlimited ways to enjoy these hamburger steaks! Bon appetit.
