Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a large baking tray with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, soak the breadcrumbs in milk and set aside to absorb.
Bring water to a boil in a medium-sized pot and boil 3 eggs for 10-12 minutes until hard-boiled. Once done, cool them in ice water, peel, and set aside.
Finely dice one onion, the garlic cloves, and the mushrooms. In a skillet over medium heat, warm the vegetable oil and sauté the onions for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
Add the mushrooms and garlic to the skillet and cook for another 5 minutes until the mushrooms release their juices and are fully cooked. Season lightly with salt and pepper, then let the mixture cool.
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, soaked breadcrumbs, 2 raw eggs, dill, paprika, salt, and ground black pepper. Mix thoroughly with your hands until well combined.
On a clean surface or a sheet of parchment paper, spread the meat mixture into a large rectangular shape, approximately 1 cm (1/2 inch) thick.
Spread the cooled mushroom mixture evenly over the meat, leaving about 2 cm (1 inch) around the edges. Place the hard-boiled eggs in a horizontal line about 1/3 of the way from one edge.
Carefully roll the meat mixture around the filling like a jelly roll, starting from the edge where the eggs are placed. Seal the edges and ends tightly to enclose the filling completely.
Transfer the meatloaf seam-side down to the prepared baking tray and shape it firmly into a loaf.
Bake in the preheated oven for 70-75 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 70°C (160°F).
Let the meatloaf rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with additional dill if desired. Serve warm with a side of mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables.
