Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground pork
- 2 slices Stale white bread
- 60 ml Milk
- 2 tablespoons Fresh sage leaves (finely chopped)
- 1 medium Yellow onion (finely diced)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 unit Large egg
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil (for greasing)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F). Lightly grease a standard loaf pan with vegetable oil and set aside.
Soak the stale white bread slices in milk for 5 minutes until softened. Squeeze out excess milk and break the bread into small pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, softened bread pieces, chopped sage leaves, diced onion, minced garlic, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Crack the egg into the bowl and mix everything together thoroughly using your hands or a spatula until well combined.
Transfer the mixture into the greased loaf pan, pressing it down gently to ensure it is evenly distributed and compacted.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 75°C (167°F).
Remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest in the pan for 10 minutes before carefully transferring it onto a serving plate or cutting board.
Slice the Haslet meatloaf and serve warm with sides like mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or salad. Alternatively, serve cold in sandwiches or with pickles.
