Using a ½ cup measuring cup as a guide, form into 6 patties. Place patties in same skillet used to saute celery. Lightly brown about 5 minutes on each side. Add remaining celery soup and water to remaining celery in bowl. Mix well to combine. Evenly spoon mixture over patties. Lower heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until meat is cooked through and celery is tender. For each serving, place 1 patty on a plate and spoon a scant ¼ cup celery sauce over top.
