1 cup coarse fresh bread crumbs (from 2 slices firm white sandwich bread)
1 1/2 cups whole milk
2 medium onions, finely chopped (2 cups)
1 Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored, and finely chopped (1 1/2 cups)
1 3/4 teaspoons salt
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/3 cup raisins (1 1/2 ounce)
1/4 cup slivered blanched almonds (1 ounce)
2 tablespoons curry powder (preferably Madras)
1 teaspoon sugar
3 large eggs

Special Equipment
a 9- by 9- by 2-inch baking dish (3-qt capacity)

Steps:

  • Soak bread crumbs in milk in a small bowl until very soft, about 15 minutes, then drain in a sieve set over a bowl, lightly pressing to remove excess milk. Reserve milk.
  • Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F. Butter baking dish.
  • Cook onions, apple, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until onions and apple are softened, about 12 minutes (do not brown). Add raisins, almonds, curry powder, and sugar and cook, stirring, 1 minute, then remove from heat. Lightly beat 1 egg in a large bowl, then add bread crumbs, lamb or beef, raisin mixture, lemon juice and zest, 1 1/4 teaspoons salt, and pepper and blend with your hands until combined well; do not overmix. Spread meat mixture evenly in baking dish and bake 30 minutes.
  • While meatloaf bakes, whisk together remaining 2 eggs, reserved milk, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  • Pour off excess fat from meatloaf (still in baking dish). Pour egg mixture over meatloaf (much of egg will fill space that has formed around meatloaf), then return to oven and bake until custard is just set, about 15 minutes more.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before starting, gather and measure all ingredients, and prep any vegetables or herbs.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your meatloaf the best flavor.
  • Don't Overwork the Meat: Overworking the meat can make the meatloaf tough.
  • Use a Loaf Pan: A loaf pan will help the meatloaf hold its shape during baking.
  • Cook the Meatloaf to the Correct Temperature: The internal temperature of the meatloaf should reach 160°F.
  • Let the Meatloaf Rest: Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meatloaf.

Conclusion:

With its combination of ground beef, flavorful spices, and a tangy curry sauce, this Curried Meatloaf is a delightful dish that is sure to please the palate. Perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion, this meatloaf is a delicious and satisfying meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
