Time 2h15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

¼ cup butter
2 cups shiitake mushrooms, sliced
1 pinch salt
1 sprig fresh rosemary, chopped
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 ½ cups beef broth
salt and pepper to taste
½ cup heavy cream
1 (2 1/2 pound) uncooked prepared beef, veal and pork meatloaf

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  • Melt butter in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in mushrooms and a pinch of salt; cook and stir until mushrooms begin to brown, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in fresh rosemary. Add flour and stir to coat the mushrooms; cook and stir for about 3 minutes.
  • Whisk in beef broth, 1/2 cup at a time, whisking constantly to prevent lumps.
  • Turn heat to high and bring the sauce to a simmer. Simmer a few minutes until sauce starts to thicken. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Remove from heat and stir in heavy cream.
  • Slide prepared meatloaf into the sauce. Spoon sauce over the top of the meatloaf.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 1 1/2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
  • Remove pan from the oven and gently remove meatloaf to a serving platter.
  • Skim off any extra fat from the surface of the sauce.
  • Bring the sauce to a boil over medium-high heat to reduce until thick, about 5 minutes.

CLASSIC MOCK MEATLOAF WITH MUSHROOM GRAVY



Classic Mock Meatloaf with Mushroom Gravy image

Provided by Food Network

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 19

9 slices (8 ounces) commercial whole wheat bread (such as Arnold or Pepperidge Farm)
2 cups (8 ounces) walnuts
3 large eggs
3 medium onions, diced
1 small green bell pepper, diced
1 small celery rib, minced
1 small bunch parsley, stems discarded and leaves chopped
2/3 cup canned crushed tomatoes or 1 (16-ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained very well
1 1/2 tablespoons canola oil
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1 teaspoon salt
Generous seasoning freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cups (8 ounces) thinly sliced mushrooms
1/4 cup unbleached flour
2 1/2 cups vegetables stock, store-bought or homemade
1/4 cup dry red wine
2 tablespoons tamari soy sauce
Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Toast the bread slices either in the toaster or on a baking sheet placed under the broiler. Let cool.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Generously butter a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan, then line the bottom with wax paper and butter the paper.
  • Tear up the toasted bread slices and make crumbs out of them in a food processor. Place in a large bowl.
  • Process the walnuts until finely ground and mix into the breadcrumbs. Combine the eggs and onions in the processor and process until fine but not liquefied. Stir into the breadcrumbs. Place the green pepper, celery, parsley, tomatoes, and oil in the processor and grind until fine but still with some texture. Stir into the loaf mixture along with the poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix this all very well until evenly moistened. (The mixture may be prepared to this point and refrigerated up to 8 hours in advance.) Scrape it into the prepared loaf pan and smooth over the top. Cover the loaf with foil.
  • Bake 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center of the loaf comes out dry. Let sit 5 minutes, then run a knife all along the sides of the loaf to help loosen it. Unmold the loaf onto a platter and remove the wax paper. Let the loaf cool 20 minutes or so before slicing it. It's best to serve the loaf warm and the gravy hot.
  • Melt the butter in a medium-size saucepan over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and saute until brown, about 7 minutes. Stir in the flour; it will become very pasty. Cook this roux for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. It will stick to the bottom of the pan a little bit; that's okay.
  • Stir in the stock, wine, soy sauce, and pepper, and bring to a boil. Cook the sauce at a lively simmer for 5 minutes, stirring almost constantly and scraping any crusty bits that adhere to the bottom of the pan. Serve in a sauceboat.
