Step 1

In large bowl, use a potato masher to mash the meat. Shape the meat into 6 even patties.

Step 2

In a large nonstick skillet, add the butter then sliced onions. Cook for 5 minutes on medium-high heat. Spread the onions on the sides, leaving the middle open. Add the meat. Continue cooking the, until the meat is lightly brown on both sides over medium-high heat. Best to move the onions around or place them on top of the meat as it as it cooks. Reduce the heat if they're browning too quickly or too much. Transfer the meat to a plate.

Step 3

Lower the heat to medium-low, using the same skillet with the drippings, add the garlic; stir. Add the flour, stir to combine with the onions, and slowly add the water while whisking so that no lumps linger. Add the salt, pepper, parsley flakes, cumin, cayenne pepper (if using), and Worcestershire sauce. Stir. Then add the meat.

Step 4

Spoon the gravy over the meat with the onions. Cover and cook for 10 minutes or until cooked through or until internal temperature reaches 160 degrees. Remove the skillet from the heat. Enjoy mashed potatoes, sweet peas, or potato salad, roasted carrots.
