½ lb hamburger, browned and rinsed
2 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoon flour
½ tsp. salt
1 cup milk
Make a white sauce by melting butter in saucepan. Blend in flour, salt and dash of pepper. Add milk all at once. Cook quickly, stirring constantly until mixture thickens and bubbles. Add hamburger to sauce. Serve over mashed potatoes.
In our poor college days we ate this a lot because it was inexpensive and filling. As we were raising our family, and money was tight this helped us through some months when there was more month than money. Our kids didn't seem to mind. Binny asked for this recipe. I think it's because he always loved mashed potatoes, and not necessarily the gravy.
