Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 0.5 pound ground pork
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 0.5 cup breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 0.25 cup ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 sheets puff pastry sheets, thawed
- 1 large egg, beaten (for pastry wash)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, chopped onion, minced garlic, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper.
Mix the ingredients with your hands or a spatula until well combined, but do not overmix to avoid a dense loaf.
Shape the meat mixture into a compact loaf approximately 8 inches long and 3 inches wide.
Unroll one puff pastry sheet onto a lightly floured surface. Place the meatloaf in the center.
Wrap the puff pastry around the meatloaf, carefully folding the edges to seal it completely. Trim away any excess pastry if needed.
If one pastry sheet does not fully cover the loaf, use a second sheet to patch any gaps and seal the loaf tightly.
Transfer the wrapped meatloaf seam-side down onto the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the beaten egg evenly over the puff pastry for a golden finish.
Using a sharp knife, create 3 shallow slits on the top of the pastry to allow steam to escape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meatloaf reaches 160°F (71°C) and the pastry is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the loaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Slice into thick portions and serve with your favorite side dishes.
