Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 4 cups green cabbage, shredded
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 cups beef broth
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons optional: chopped parsley (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the ground beef. Cook for 6-8 minutes, breaking it into crumbles with a wooden spoon, until fully browned. Drain excess fat and set the beef aside on a plate.

Step 2

In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and the diced onion. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 additional minute until fragrant.

Step 3

Add the shredded cabbage to the skillet. Stir and let it cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring frequently, until the cabbage becomes tender. Remove the cabbage mixture from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the now-empty skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Once melted, whisk in the all-purpose flour to create a roux. Stir constantly for 1-2 minutes until the roux is lightly golden.

Step 5

Gradually whisk in the beef broth, ensuring there are no lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer, allowing it to thicken to a gravy-like consistency (about 3-4 minutes).

Step 6

Stir in the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Step 7

Return the cooked ground beef to the skillet, stirring it into the gravy. Let it simmer for another 2-3 minutes to heat through.

Step 8

Serve the hamburger gravy over the sautéed cabbage. Optionally, garnish with chopped parsley for a fresh finish.
