Notes

  • Browning patties adds flavor and helps them hold shape, but can be skipped if pressed for time.
  • For a creamy gravy, stir in a splash of cream after thickening.
  • Use gluten-free breadcrumbs and sauces for a gluten-free version.
  • Frozen patties work if thawed before cooking.
  • Pairs perfectly with mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles.
