Meatloaf

Ingredients

Directions

1. Make the meatloaf: Heat oven to 350 degrees and grease a rimmed baking sheet with oil. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a medium skillet over medium. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 2 minutes.

2. Stir in tomato paste until well combined; let cool.

3. In a large bowl, combine bread and milk, and mash with a spoon until a paste forms.

4. Add eggs, parsley, salt, pepper, thyme and cooled onion mixture and mix until well blended.

5. Add the beef, pork and veal, and mix gently to combine, being careful not to overwork the meat.

6. Divide mixture into 2 equal portions and shape each into a 4-by-8-inch meatloaf on the prepared baking sheet. (If you like, use an 8-inch loaf pan to shape each meatloaf before unmolding for baking.)

7. Make the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together ketchup and Worcestershire sauce until smooth. Use a spoon to spread mixture over the top and sides of each meatloaf.

8. Bake until nicely browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center of meatloaf registers 160 degrees, 45 to 55 minutes. Let rest for 15 minutes before sprinkling the top with fresh parsley, if using, and slicing.
