Meatloaf Patty Recipe

How to make it

---

• Place meat in a large mixing bowl and create a well in the center of the meat. Fill the well with the bread cubes and dampen them with a splash of milk. Pour 1 beaten egg over bread and add seasoning or salt and pepper, allspice, tomato paste and onion to the bowl.
• Combine the meat, bread and grill seasoning or salt and pepper and form mixture into 4 large oval patties 3/4-inch thick. Pan fry meatloaf patties in a nonstick skillet over medium high heat 7 minutes on each side under a loose tin foil tent. The tent will reflect heat and allow the steam to escape the pan. Remove meat loaf patties to a platter and return pan to heat.

• **3-Condiment Pan Gravy:**
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1/4 medium onion, finely chopped, reserved from meatloaf mixture
• 2 tablespoons (a handful) all-purpose flour
• 1 to 1 1/2 cups beef stock
• 1 tablespoon ketchup
• 1 rounded teaspoon spicy brown mustard
• 1 tablespoon steak sauce
• Reduce heat to medium and add butter and onion to your skillet. Cook the onion 2 minutes and sprinkle pan with flour. Cook flour 1 minute and whisk in 1 cup beef stock. Bring broth to a bubble. If gravy is too thick, thin with additional stock. Stir in condiments and remove gravy from heat.
• Slice meatloaf patties and drizzle with gravy. Pile smashed potatoes (see Vegetables for recipe) along side and make a well in the center for sour cream or gravy. Serve meatloaf and smashed potatoes with baby carrots, or with a tossed salad dressed with oil and vinegar.
