Excerpt from Mrs. Wilson’s Cook Book- Broiled Hamburger Steak
Mary A. Wilson

BROILED HAMBURGER STEAK

Do not fry or pan hamburger steak made from flank of sirloin. Place meat in bowl and add;

Three-quarters cup of moist bread crumbs,
One onion, minced fine,
Two tablespoons of parsley,
One teaspoon of salt,
One-half teaspoon of paprika,
One egg.

Mix, form into flat cakes, brush with salad oil; place on baking dish. Broil in gas broiler for eight minutes, then place in hot oven for seven minutes longer. Spread with desired butter and send to the table in a baking dish. This will give a delicious flavored meat in place of the usual dry, tasteless cake that is frequently served.
What happens when the flat cakes come out of the broiler?
