MEATLOAF RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180C/350F. Oil or spray a loaf tin. (Note 3)
• Glaze: Mix together in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Meatloaf: Place breadcrumbs in a very large bowl. Grate over onion. Mix so the breadcrumbs are all wet. (Note 4)
• Add remaining ingredients. Mix well using your hands. Form into a loaf shape, pinching together then smoothing over creases and cracks (helps prevent cracks during baking).
• Transfer into loaf tin. Brush generously with glaze, using about 1/2.
• Bake for 45 minutes. Remove from oven and brush with most of the remaining glaze. If there is excess fat pooling, scoop/pour it off.
• Bake for a further 30 minutes. Remove from oven.
• Stand for 10 minutes before turning out and cutting into thick slices. You will probably get a bit of crumbling just on the edges of the first couple of slices, this is normal and indicative of the tenderness of the meatloaf (zero crumble indicates firm packed harder meatloaf which isn't as enjoyable!).
• Ideal served with a dollop of ketchup, creamy mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables.

ITALIAN MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Line the long sides and base of a 2lb loaf tin with double thickness baking parchment. Mix 2 tbsp each of the breadcrumbs and Parmesan in a small bowl and set aside. Tip all the remaining ingredients into a large bowl with a good shake of salt and pepper and mix well - hands are the best for this job.
• Press the mixture into the loaf tin and sprinkle with the reserved crumb mix. Bake for 40-45 mins until the top is golden and crunchy. If the top does not colour in the oven, pop the tin under the grill and brown the top for 5 mins. Cool in the tin for 5 mins, then lift out using the parchment and put on a board. Slice and serve with potatoes and green beans.

Add egg, 1/2 cup ketchup, 2 teaspoons dry mustard, salt, and pepper; use hands to combine thoroughly. Place in an 8 1/2-by-4 1/2- by-2 1/2-inch loaf pan. 3. Combine remaining 1/2 cup ketchup, remaining teaspoon dry mustard, and brown sugar in a bowl; stir until smooth. 4. Brush mixture over meat/oaf; place in the oven with a baking pan set on the rack below to catch drippings. Cook until a meat thermometer inserted in the center reads 160 degrees, about 90 minutes. If top gets too dark, cover with foil, and continue baking.

RUSSIAN STUFFED MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until lightly colored, about 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, soak the bread in the milk for 10 minutes. Squeeze the bread to remove any excess milk and crumble into a large bowl. Discard the milk.
• Add the beef to the bread along with the onions with the butter used to cook them in, eggs, ice water, sour cream, and salt and pepper. Knead until thoroughly blended. Set the meatloaf mixture aside.
• In a second bowl, combine the hard cooked eggs, scallions, and melted butter. Season lightly with salt and pepper and mix.
• Preheat the oven to 375°F Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Spread the meatloaf mixture out on a large piece of waxed paper into a 12x10-inch rectangle. Spread the stuffing over the meat mixture, leaving a 1 inch border on all sides. Roll up like a jelly roll, starting on one long side. Peel back the waxed paper as you roll.
• Place the roll, seam side down, on the prepared baking sheet. Spread the mayonnaise on the roll, using a rubber spatula, and sprinkle generously with bread crumbs and with the sweet and hot paprika.
• Bake 1 hour. Cut into thick slices and serve at once.

ANN ROMNEY'S MEATLOAF CAKES

Steps:

• For the meatloaf cakes: Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, crumbled bread or bread crumbs, egg, onion, lemon juice and seasoned salt. Mix lightly but thoroughly and shape into six small loaves. Space evenly on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes; meanwhile, prepare the sauce.
• For the sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the ketchup, brown sugar, mustard, cloves and allspice. When the meatloaf cakes have baked for 15 minutes, brush each loaf with sauce and return to the oven. Continue to bake until the meatloaf cakes are 165 degrees in the center when tested with an instant-read thermometer, about 20 more minutes. If desired, serve with scalloped potatoes and steamed vegetables. Pass additional sauce separately.
