Embutido – Steamed Meatloaf

This is a filipino dish. It takes a while to prepare the dish but what I like about this is that you can make plenty and freeze it for later. This is one of our family favorites. This is also popular for parties and potlucks.

Ingredients:
2 lbs. Ground Pork
Small onion (chopped)
2 Carrots (chopped)
6 cloves garlic (chopped)
1 egg
3 tbsp. flour
Salt and Pepper to taste
4 hard boiled eggs peeled and cut into 4 (Lengthwise)

Directions:
Mix all the ingredients except for the hard boiled eggs (they will be used as a filling).
Divide mixture into 5 portions.
Place the sliced hard boiled eggs inside the meatloaf. You’ll have to watch the video to see how I do it.
Wrap each portion in aluminum foil. Watch the video above to see how I wrap it.
Steam wrapped meat loaf for 15-20 minutes.
Remove aluminum foil wrapper and pan fry the meatloaf in a pan with some oil – just enough to brown the outside.
Let fried meatloaf rest for 7-10 minutes before slicing.
Slice the meat into 1/2 inch pieces at an angle.
Serve with Sweet and Sour Sauce or Ketchup.

Tip: You can add raisins, cilantro and sausage in the meat mixture if you wish. If you are not serving them all in one meal, you can freeze the steamed meatloaf – just make sure it is completely cool before you freeze it. Do not remove the foil before you freeze. Thaw the frozen meatloaf before you pan fry.
