How to Make Beef And Bacon Rissoles With Gravy
- Cook bacon in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat until crisp. Remove and set aside; reserve 1 tablespoon of bacon fat in the pan.
- In a large bowl, gently combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, green onions, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, and half of the barbecue sauce.
- Mix until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
- Shape the mixture into eight equal-sized rissoles (about the size of a sausage patty).
- Add reserved bacon fat and remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the pan. Heat over medium heat.
- Cook rissoles for 4-5 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked through.
- Remove rissoles from pan and set aside, keeping them warm.
- Add mustard to the pan. Pour in beef stock and remaining barbecue sauce, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low.
- In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and cold water until smooth.
- Gradually whisk the cornstarch slurry into the gravy. Cook, stirring constantly, until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency (about 1-2 minutes).
- Serve the delicious rissoles hot, smothered in gravy and accompanied by cabbage mash and cooked greens. Enjoy!
