Ingredients

  • 1 lb (about 450 g) ground beef (preferably 85–90% lean)
  • 1/2 cup plain bread crumbs
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter (for cooking)
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter
  • 12 oz (about 340 g) white or cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup diced onion
  • Salt, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 3 cups beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 croissants
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon freshly chopped parsley (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, bread crumbs, egg, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, dry mustard, soy sauce and black pepper. Mix gently until combined. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  2. For the gravy, melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and onions, season with salt and sauté 5–8 minutes.
  3. Reduce heat to medium, sprinkle in the flour and stir for 3 minutes. Gradually add the beef broth, ketchup and Worcestershire sauce. Simmer about 10 minutes until slightly thickened.
  4. Remove meat mixture from the fridge. Shape into 4 equal oval patties about 1/2 inch thick.
  5. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a clean skillet over medium-high heat. Brown patties for 2–3 minutes per side. Pour gravy over the patties, simmer 5 minutes or until fully cooked (internal temperature 70°C/160°F).
  6. Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F). Mix softened butter with honey. Slice croissants, spread honey butter inside, close and warm for 5 minutes. Garnish with parsley if desired.
  7. Serve a Salisbury steak patty with plenty of gravy and a warm honey-butter croissant on the side.

Notes

  • Chilling the patties helps them hold shape and improves texture.
  • Add a splash of cream or butter to the gravy at the end for extra richness.
  • You can warm croissants in a skillet if you don’t have an oven.
  • Use less honey for a milder sweetness in the croissants.
  • Gravy too thin? Add a flour slurry to thicken.
