Ingredients
2 Tbsp
unsalted butter
½ cup
finely chopped white onion
½ cup
finely chopped carrot
⅓ cup
finely chopped green cabbage
¼ cup
finely chopped celery
¾ cup
Italian breadcrumbs
¼ cup
whole milk
1 lb
80% lean ground beef
8 oz
ground pork
⅓ cup
ketchup
¼ cup
grated Parmesan cheese
1 large
egg, lightly beaten
1.5 tsp
Worcestershire sauce
½ tsp
Marmite
1 tsp
kosher salt
½ tsp
freshly ground black pepper
2 Tbsp
chopped fresh parsley
Steps
1. Sauté Vegetables
Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. When the butter is foamy, add the onion, carrot, cabbage, and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent and the carrots are soft, about 7 minutes.
2. Make Panade
While the vegetables are cooking, combine the breadcrumbs and milk in a large bowl. Stir to evenly combine.
3. Add Vegetables to Panade
Tip the cooked vegetables into the bowl with the breadcrumb mixture. Let cool for 5 minutes.
4. Add Remaining Ingredients
Add the beef, pork, ketchup, Parmesan, egg, Worcestershire, Marmite, salt, and pepper to the bowl.
5. Mix Thoroughly
Using your hands, thoroughly mix the ingredients. Stop as soon as the mixture is uniform, being careful not to over mix.
6. Transfer to Pan and Chill
Transfer the meatloaf mixture to a greased 9- by 5-inch loaf pan. Press down to form an even layer without air pockets. Create a small indent in the middle section of the loaf to prevent the center from puffing. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
