MEATLOAF WITH TOMATO GRAVY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Toast the bread crumbs in a dry skillet over medium heat until browned and fragrant, about 1 minute. Transfer to a large mixing bowl and set aside. Add the olive oil, onions, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper to the skillet and cook until onions are tender, about 8 minutes. Let cool slightly. Add the onions to the bread crumbs along with the meat, cheese, and Worcestershire sauce. Toss and mix gently. Add the eggs and stir to coat the meat completely.
• Transfer to a foil-lined sheet pan and gently press into desired shape. Bake until an instant read thermometer registers 160 degrees F in the center of the loaf, about 45 minutes.
• Tent the meatloaf with foil and let rest for 15 minutes while you make the gravy (or you can make the gravy while the meatloaf is baking).
• Gravy: Cook the onions, garlic, and oregano in the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until browned, about 6 minutes. Add the tomato paste and bay leaf. Stir until paste turns brick red and garlic is fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add the chicken broth and crushed tomatoes. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer and cook sauce until it thickens, about 5 minutes. Whisk in Parmesan cheese, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Discard the bay leaf and transfer the sauce to a gravy boat. Slice the meatloaf and serve with the gravy.

MEATLOAF WITH FRIED ONIONS AND TOMATO GRAVY

Steps:

• To make Meatloaf: Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• In a large bowl, mix chopped meat, bread crumbs, eggs, bouillon broth, Parmesan, and chopped parsley. Mix well with a wooden spoon until all the ingredients are well incorporated. Form into a loaf shape and place on a sheet pan coated with nonstick vegetable spray.
• Place in oven and cook for 45 minutes, or until meatloaf has an internal temperature of 160 degrees.
• To make Tomato Gravy: In a large saucepan, heat butter over medium-high heat. Allow butter to foam and begin to brown. Add smashed garlic and allow garlic to brown slightly. Sprinkle in flour and stir constantly, forming a roux to cook for approximately 10 to 12 minutes until golden brown. Add chicken stock and tomato paste and cook for 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add 1/4 cup red wine vinegar and all tomatoes. Simmer for 30 minutes and finish with salt, pepper and oregano. Serve atop the meatloaf.
• To make Fried Onions: Heat a large, deep pot of oil to 350 degrees. Soak onions in milk for a minimum of 10 minutes. When oil is hot, drain onions and dredge in flour, making sure to remove excess flour.
• Plunge onions a batch at a time (there should be 3 batches) into hot oil and fry until extremely golden brown and crispy. Remove from fryer and place on a paper towel to drain. Serve atop dressed meatloaf.

NANA'S MEATLOAF

Steps:

• 1. Combine all meatloaf ingredients in a large bowl and with clean hands mix all together until completely mixed.
• 2. In a loaf pan put your two slices of bread (the heels work best) in the bottom. (this soaks up the grease and ensures meatloaf doesnt burn on bottom)
• 3. Form meat mixture into a loaf and place in pan. I then push mine in so that it takes up the whole pan.
• 4. Bake in 350 degree preheated oven for an hour and 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven and drain off any grease there might be. Now cover top of meatloaf with ketchup (you can also use tomato soup, i usually do) and sprinkle with parmesan.
• 5. Return to oven and continue baking until meatloaf is completely done. Another 10 to 15 minutes usually depending on oven.
• 6. Remove from oven and allow to cool a bit so meatloaf does not fall apart when cutting. You can cut it right in the pan (just remember the bread is on the bottom) or invert it onto a serving plate, remove bread and cut and serve.
