Directions
-
In a large bowl, combine the lean ground beef, fresh bread crumbs, grated onion, grated green bell pepper, salt, and liquid beef bouillon.
-
Mix the ingredients thoroughly with your hands until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
-
Divide the mixture into six equal portions and shape each into a plump, oval patty, about 3/4 inch thick.
-
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
-
Place the patties in the skillet and cover tightly with a lid.
-
Cook for 10 minutes, then flip the patties over.
-
Continue cooking covered for another 10 minutes until the beef is cooked through.
-
Remove the cooked patties from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
-
In a small bowl, whisk together 2 cups of water and the tomato paste until smooth.
-
Pour the water and tomato paste mixture into the hot skillet, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
-
Bring the liquid to a simmer, then stir in any remaining drippings or seasonings to taste.
-
Return the patties to the skillet, nestling them into the gravy.
-
Simmer uncovered for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.
-
Serve the Salisbury steak patties hot, spooning plenty of the savory gravy over the top.
