Irish Meatloaf With Cabbage Cream Sauce Recipes

IRISH PUB MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 350°F.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Heat the olive oil in a medium size skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Add the celery, onion, carrot and garlic; season with salt and pepper and sauté to soften, about 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Pour in the beer and stir. Let the beer reduce by half. Turn off the heat and let cool.
• Meanwhile, soak the bread in milk and finely chop the corned beef. Place the corned beef and ground beef in a bowl and add the cheese. Wring out the bread and add it to the meat, crumbling it over the bowl. Pour in the beer mixture. Season with salt, pepper, mustard, cayenne and Worcestershire sauce. Add the eggs and mix with your hands.
• Form the meat into a brick about 4 inches high on the baking sheet. Wrap the bacon slices across the top and around sides of the loaf. Bake for 1 hour in the middle of the oven, then switch on the broiler for about 5 minutes to crisp the bacon.

KALPUDDING (MEATLOAF WITH CARAMELIZED CABBAGE)

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350. Put a large pan over medium-high heat, and add the butter. When it starts to foam, add the cabbage and molasses, lower the heat to medium and sprinkle with salt. Cook slowly, stirringoften, until all the liquid has evaporated and the cabbage is caramelized, approximately 20-25 minutes.
• While the cabbage is cooking, lightly mix the meats in a large bowl, then add the onion, cream and breadcrumbs, and mix again to combine.
• When the cabbage is done, add about a third of it to the meat mixture, and mix to combine. Use the remaining butter to grease an 8-inch-square baking pan, and transfer the meat mixture to it, spreading it out to cover the whole surface evenly. Spread remaining cabbage over the meat, pour the stock or water over the top and place in the oven, on a sheet tray, to cook for approximately 40 to 45 minutes, or until the cabbage is very, very caramelized, almost dry and crunchy at the edges. Allow it to sit for 10 minutes or so before serving.
• While the meat and cabbage cooks, make the sauce. Heat lingonberry preserves, vinegar and butter in a small pot set over medium heat, then add Worcestershire sauce to taste. Serve alongside the kalpudding.
