Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams ground beef
- 250 grams ground pork
- 1 medium, finely chopped onion
- 3 cloves, minced garlic
- 1 large, grated carrot
- 1 finely chopped celery stalk
- 100 grams, fresh, chopped spinach
- 1 large egg
- 50 grams almond flour
- 2 tablespoons, fresh, chopped parsley
- 1 teaspoon, dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic, carrot, and celery. Sauté until the vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, ground pork, sautéed vegetables, spinach, egg, almond flour, parsley, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well incorporated.
Transfer the meat mixture onto a large piece of parchment paper and shape it into a log approximately 12 inches long.
Carefully roll the parchment around the meat log, tucking the ends underneath to secure it. Place the wrapped meat roll on a baking sheet seam-side down.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through and an internal thermometer reads 70°C (160°F).
Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Slice the meat roll and serve warm. Enjoy!
