Preparation method

How do you make this?

Meatloaf: Finely chop 1 onion and mix it with the ground meat. Season with pepper and salt. Form a ball and place it in a baking dish.

Make 6 incisions with a large knife. Cut the other onion in half and then into 3 equal pieces. Insert these between the meat to form a star. Add the rosemary sprigs, brush with olive oil, and bake for 35-40 minutes at 180°C. Cover during baking with aluminum foil or baking paper to prevent the onions from browning too much.

Once baked, set aside, drain the fat, deglaze with brown stock, add cream and mustard, taste, and let it reduce.

Baked Apple: Cut 2 apples into quarters, remove the core, and slice each quarter. Place them skin side down in a cupcake or muffin tin with some butter and a little brown sugar already in it.

Cut 6 nice slices from 1 apple, remove the core. Cut the remaining apples into small pieces and distribute them over the molds. Place the apple slices on top, add some butter, and then some sugar.

Bake for 35 minutes at 180°C. Place a baking sheet on top and turn over to unmold.

Make the cranberry sauce

Slice the meatloaf, fry the croquettes, heat the cranberries and apples, serve on nice plates. Put the rest on the table.

Tips

  • Let the apples gently caramelize in some butter, this way you get that soft, sweet touch that pairs perfectly with the savory meat.
  • Leftover meatloaf is delicious on bread with some mustard or pickles, ideal for a quick lunch.
  • Let the meatloaf rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing, this way it stays nicely compact and juicy.
