1 lb. ground meat
1 large onion, chopped
1 1/2 c. grated carrots
1 egg
salt

Mix all together. Shape into large patties, 2 to 2 1/2-inches in diameter and about 3/4 to 1-inch thick, by dropping heaping tablespoonful into handful of flour and shaping with another handful of flour. Brown fairly quickly in hot oil and set aside in baking pan. When all are brown, finish in oven for about 30 to 40 minutes. Pour off all but about 2 to 3 tablespoons of oil and make water gravy.
