Dinner: Meatloaf - Based On A Recipe From Gordon Ramsay

Ingrediance

1\4 cup butter

1 large onion, finely chopped

4 celery stalks, finely sliced

3 carrots, finely chopped

1 green pepper, finely chopped

2 garlic cloves, peeled and chopped

1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

1 tbsp chili powder

1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

2 bay leaves

4 ounces evaporated milk

4 ounces tomato ketchup

1lb minced beef

1lb minced pork or sausage meat

2 eggs, lightly beaten

1 cup breadcrumbs

Freshly ground salt and pepper

1. Melt the butter in a large saucepan and add the onion, celery, pepper, spring onions, garlic, parsley, chili sauce, Worcestershire sauce and bay leaves. Cook over a gentle heat, stirring occasionally, for about 6 minutes.

2. Add the evaporated milk

 Add Ketchup and continue to cook for another 2 minutes.

Remove from the heat and cool

3. Discard the bay leaves.

4. Preheat the oven to 264F

5. Place the beef and pork in a large bowl; add the eggs, breadcrumbs and vegetable mixture, and season.

6. Place the mixture in an ungreased roasting dish and bake for 25 minutes.

Increase Temp To 400F Cook For 35-40 Mins More

 At The End Of The Backing Time The Internal Temp Of The Meat Loaf Was At 170F

 I Removed Some Of The Oil When It Was Cooling. Some Of The Oil Could Have Been Avoided If I Would Have Used Leaner Beef And Pork.
