The secret to moist, flavourful meat loaf? Use cooked (rather than raw) onions, mushrooms and seasonings, then gently mix with beef and pack the pan lightly. An easy sauce gives this classic panache.
Ingredients
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 5 cups sliced mushrooms, (12 oz/375 g)
- 1 sweet red pepper, finely chopped
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp dried basil
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/4 cup chili sauce
- 1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 1-1/2 lb lean ground beef
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1-1/2 cups beef stock
- 2 tsp red wine vinegar
Preparation
In large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat; cook mushrooms, pepper, onion, garlic and basil, stirring often, for 15 minutes or until onions are softened and liquid from mushrooms is evaporated. Set skillet aside.
In bowl, stir together egg, chili sauce, bread crumbs, salt and pepper. Mix in beef, then 1 cup (250 mL) of the mushroom mixture. Pack lightly into ungreased 8- x 4-inch (1.5 L) loaf pan. Bake in 350°F (180°C) oven for 60 to 75 minutes or until meat thermometer registers 170°F (75°C). Let stand for 5 minutes. Drain off fat.
Meanwhile, in same skillet, sprinkle flour over remaining mushroom mixture and return to medium heat; cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Whisk in stock and vinegar; bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring, for 5 to 8 minutes or until thickened. Serve with meat loaf.
