MEATLOAF PARMESAN



Meatloaf Parmesan image

A bit retro, but heartwarming and homey, this recipe is an amalgam of meatloaf, polpettone and meatballs. Ground veal and pork, provolone, pecorino and Parmesan mingle with herbs, broccoli rabe and bread crumbs in what is essentially a sliceable meatball. It is doused with tomato sauce and baked until bubbly, aromatic and mouthwatering.

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 28

1 pound ground veal, or substitute ground beef or turkey
1 pound ground pork
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Healthy pinch of red-pepper flakes
1 teaspoon crushed fennel seed
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1 cup dry bread, cut in 1/2-inch cubes, soaked in 1 cup milk until softened
2 eggs, beaten
3 tablespoons chopped parsley
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
5 ounces cooked broccoli rabe or spinach, blanched, squeezed dry and chopped (about 3/4 cup)
