Filipino Meat Loaf Recipe

Filipino Meat Loaf Recipe

(Embutido)

Ingredients:

1 slice white bread with crust

60 ml fresh or evaporated milk

400 g ground pork

1 140 g tin Vienna sausage, chopped

2 pieces chorizo sausage, chopped

100 g raisins

200 ml sweet pickle relish

4 eggs

½ cup crushed pineapple

Salt and pepper to taste

Butter for greasing

4 hard-boiled eggs, sliced crosswise

 

Method:

Soak bread in milk for a few minutes.  In a large mixing bowl, combine the bread, ground pork, sausage, chorizo, raisins, pickle relish, 4 eggs and crushed pineapple.  Mix well by hand.  Season with salt and pepper.  Cut 4 pieces of foil about 30 x 45 cm.  Brush butter on foil and spread about one quarter of the pork mixture on each foil.  Arrange slices of hard-boiled egg on each pork mixture.  Roll pork into a log, using the edge of the foil to help in the rolling process.  Wrap tightly with the foil and seal the edges.  Steam the pork rolls in a steamer about 40 minutes or until firm.

 

Note: The meat loaf can be cooked ahead and refrigerated.  It can be served hot with rice or cold as filling for a sandwich.  As it should be sliced before serving, you may want to chill it slightly so it does not crumble when cutting.  After slicing, warm the embutido in the microwave or non-stick pan if desired.
