Instructions

Cauliflower mash

  1. Place cauliflower florets in a steamer or boil them in salted water for about 10 minutes.
  2. Remove from the heat, drain, and place in a blender or a food processor with the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Process until smooth, set aside, and keep warm.
  3. Salisbury steak

  4. In a bowl, combine the beef, onion powder, egg yolk, coconut flour, salt, and pepper.
  5. Using your hands, create 3" (7 cm) patties, about 4.8 oz (135 g) from the mixture.
  6. Grease a large skillet with ghee or butter. Once hot, add the burgers. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for about 3 minutes on each side. Do not flip the patties too soon or they will stick to the pan. When done, set aside and keep warm.
  7. Onion gravy

  8. Add the ghee to the pan where you cooked the patties. Add the onion and cook over medium heat for about 7 minutes, or until lightly browned and fragrant.
  9. Add the tomato paste, mustard, and coconut aminos, and cook for 1 minute.
  10. Pour in the bone broth, bring to a boil, then remove from the heat. Let the gravy cool down for a few minutes, then pour into a blender and process until smooth.
  11. For serving

  12. Serve the cauliflower mash with the patties and pour the gravy on top.

Tip

Store the patties and cauliflower mash in separate containers in the fridge for up to four days.

    Hi ... if I used 170g rump steak (instead of mince) in a 1-serve meal for this recipe is this ok?

    Yes, that should work just fine!

    So the gravy has no thickener? It's just a broth based "sauce"?

    It should thicken on its own a bit. However, you can add a thickener if needed. This guide should help! https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/recipes/how-to-thicken-keto-and-l...

    It's used as a binder, but you can certainly substitute if needed.

    It turns out very nice. The gravy is excellent.

    This was a very good recipe. I used almond flour instead of coconut flour in the ground meat.
