• Fry the patties in skillet on medium heat until cooked to your liking.
• I usually fry until they are medium-well to well done.
• While patties are cooking, mix 1 can cream of mushroom soup, 1/2 to 1 cup water or milk, and brown gravy packet/mix in a bowl, stirring well.
• After patties are browned and ready, add the soup mixture to the skillet. Reduce heat to simmer; spread the mixture over the patties and turn them once or twice as the mixture warms.
• Stir mixture occasionally.
• Simmer for 5 to 10 minutes or until gravy is good and hot.
• Serve with mashed potatoes, your choice of veggies, a good salad, hot rolls or bread, and a cold glass of iced tea.
• Of course, this recipe can be doubled. Serving size depends on how hungry your family or company is! ;).
• Kind of a "blue-plate" special!
