Mushroom Beef Patties

Ingredients

1 pound beef
1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
2 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon salt divided
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 pound mushrooms
1 teaspoon basil
5 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
5 1/2 cup water
1/4 teaspoon pepper sauce
1/4 cup cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons green onion

Instructions

Combine beef, crumbs, milk, Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 teaspoon salt, pepper and garlic powder; mix well. Shape into 3 or 4 oval patties; cook on both sides until no longer pink. Cook the mushrooms and basil in 2 Tablespoon butter over medium-high heat until tender. Increase heat to high; cook and stir until most of the liquid evaporates. Melt the remaining butter; stir in flour. Gradually blend in cream. Add 1/2 cup water, hot pepper sauce and remaining salt; cook and stir on low until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir for 2 minutes more. Add enough remaining water to make a medium-thin sauce. Add mushrooms; heat through. Serve over beef patties; top with cheese and onions.
