I found this receipt on the Food Network website. It was created by Paula Deen. This receipt has never really sounded to appetizing to me so I’m not tried this dish either. (As I type up all these summaries I’m realizing to myself my lack of variety when I eat out or make dishes at home). Anyways this receipt was fairly simple and I would probably make it again. I tried it but wife wasn’t very interested that day so I took it over to my parents’ home that evening. My dad normally orders this dish when they go out to breakfast so I was very interested in getting his opinion on how it was prepared. He didn’t like the lack of breading on the steak. The receipt only called for the steaks to be dredged in flour but he believes there is always bread crumbs that coat the steak like panko’s or something. Also he thought the steaks should have been deep fried and not pan fried but he loved the gravy. I remember in class a comment Chef O’Donnell made about Thanksgiving; he said people don’t really care of the taste of turkeys; it’s all about the gravy so I really focused on this part of the dish. In the past, I wouldn’t have seasoned it the way I did here because I would have thought I added too much salt but it turned out nice. Also I added flour to the gravy towards the end to thicken it up but it created a lot of lumps throughout so I whisk them out for a long time. The potatoes came out okay but I should have used a hand mixer and not a hand masher.
