Just
in a different sort of mood so slave decided to cook something
different. This
is an easy, warm meal guaranteed to melt the ice!
Ingredients:
1
lbs ground beef
medium
yellow onion
3
Tbs old fashioned Oats
¼
cup chopped onion
1
Tbs oil
1
egg
1
Tbs low sodium Worcestershire sauce
¼
tsp paprika
½
tsp Herbes
de Provence
1
can beef gravy
½
head cauliflower
1
can chicken broth
½
lbs fresh green beans
1
Tbs oil
=====
Directions:
Pre
heat oven to 400
degrees
Clean
and snap the green beans, toss with 1 Tbs oil. Spread on a cooking
sheet and sprinkle with kosher salt. Set aside.
Cut
the cauliflower into small florets and place in a dutch oven with 1
can chicken broth. Cover, bring to boil then turn down to a slight
simmer.
Slice
the onion very thin. Slave used a mandolin for this. Heat 1 tbs of
oil over a medium low heat. Add the onion, you will know if the heat
is too high if it sizzles. This cooks low and slow, you just want to
caramelize them. Sprinkle with paprika and herbs. Stir occasionally
for about 20 minutes. In the last few minutes the onions will start
to turn a nice brown.
While
they are “sweating” mix the ground beef with the oats, onion, and
egg. Mix in the Worcestershire sauce.
Form
into 4 patties or loafs.
When
the onions are done, remove them to a small plate and put the patties
into the skillet. Raise the heat to about half way and cover for
about 4 minutes.
Turn
each over and cook for another 4 minutes. They should be a nice
crusty brown. Don't worry about them not being cooked at this point.
Spray
a baking dish and place the four patties in with spoonful of onions
on each. Pour the caned gravy around them, cover with foil and place
in the oven along side of the tray with the green beans. Let them
bake for 20
minutes.
The
cauliflower
should be cooked very soft by now so let it drain well. The drier the
better. Now mash this just like you would potatoes, only without the
milk or butter. (No it will not be the same as mashed potatoes but
it will be good, especially with that gravy from around the steaks.)
slave
wishes it had better pictures to show each step on this, but the
phone-camera just was not cooperating!
This
is a no big deal dinner, but it is very good and not that bad for
you. Enjoy some comfort food once in a while.
Slave
hopes this warm meal will help defrost your family.
