Time 2h

Yield 6 - 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 pound mushrooms
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 pound ground very lean pork
1 pound ground very lean veal
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 cup fresh bread crumbs
1/8 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh dill
1/2 cup drained, chopped, red, ripe fresh or canned tomatoes
3 sprigs fresh dill

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • Slice the mushrooms on a flat surface. There should be three or four cups.
  • Heat the butter in a skillet and add the onions. Cook until wilted and add the mushrooms. Cook until the mushrooms give up their liquid. Cook until this liquid evaporates.
  • Put the pork and veal in a mixing bowl and add the mushroom and onion mixture. Add the nutmeg, bread crumbs, pepper flakes, a generous grinding of pepper, egg, heavy cream and chopped dill. Blend well with the hands.
  • Pack the mixture into a 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan and smooth it over on top. Spoon the tomatoes on top and arrange the dill sprigs in the center.
  • Place the loaf pan in a larger pan and pour water around it. Bring the water to the boil on top of the stove and then place in the oven. Bake one to one and one-half hours or until a meat thermometer in the center of the loaf registers 160 degrees.

This meatloaf is a bit bland for my taste. I would add more seasoning next time.

Not bad. Would make again with a few tweaks.

I've been making this meatloaf for years and it's always a crowd-pleaser. It's so moist and flavorful, and the mushrooms add a nice umami flavor.

This meatloaf was delicious and so easy to make! I used ground turkey instead of beef and it turned out great. I will definitely be making this again.

I thought this recipe was just OK. The meatloaf was a little too dense for my taste and the mushrooms didn't really add much flavor.

Not a fan of this recipe. The meatloaf was dry and the mushrooms were bland. I won't be making this again.

I've made this recipe several times and it always comes out great. I like to add a little bit of Worcestershire sauce and garlic powder to the meatloaf mixture for extra flavor.
