MEATLOAF PATTIES

Steps:

• Mix egg, bread crumbs, salt, and black pepper together in a large bowl. Break ground beef into small pieces and add to the bowl; mix well with your hands until beef is evenly moistened. Shape the beef mixture into four patties.
• Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook patties in hot skillet until completely browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side; remove to a platter and drain grease from skillet.
• Return skillet to medium heat. Stir tomato sauce, green onions, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and yellow mustard together in the skillet. Gently lie the patties into the sauce; bring liquid to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the patties are very firm, hot, and grey in the center, about 10 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

MEATLOAF PATTIES, SMASHED POTATOES, AND PAN GRAVY

Steps:

• Place meat in a large mixing bowl and create a well in the center of the meat. Fill the well with the bread cubes and dampen them with a splash of milk. Pour 1 beaten egg over bread and add seasoning or salt and pepper, allspice, tomato paste and onion to the bowl.
• Combine the meat, bread and grill seasoning or salt and pepper and form mixture into 4 large oval patties 3/4-inch thick. Pan fry meatloaf patties in a nonstick skillet over medium high heat 7 minutes on each side under a loose tin foil tent. The tent will reflect heat and allow the steam to escape the pan.
• Cover the quartered, red-skinned potatoes in water in a medium saucepan. Bring water to a boil and cook potatoes 10 minutes or until fork tender. Turn heat under pan off; drain potatoes and return to hot pan and warm stovetop to dry potatoes out. Add butter, sour cream, scallions, and milk to potatoes and smash to your desired consistency. Season potatoes with salt, to taste.
• Remove meat loaf patties to a platter and return pan to heat. Reduce heat to medium and add butter and onion to your skillet. Cook the onion 2 minutes and sprinkle pan with flour. Cook flour 1 minute and whisk in 1 cup beef stock. Bring broth to a bubble. If gravy is too thick, thin with additional stock. Stir in condiments and remove gravy from heat.
• Slice meatloaf patties and drizzle with gravy. Pile smashed potatoes along side and make a well in the center for sour cream or gravy. Serve meatloaf and smashed potatoes with baby carrots, or with a tossed salad dressed with oil and vinegar.

STOVE TOP MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Season the meat with salt and pepper. Add the meat to a large mixing bowl, creating a well in the center by kneading the sides of the meat to the edges of the bowl. Once you have made the well, add the bread. Beat 1 egg and pour over the bread. Season with allspice, salt and pepper and add the onion and tomato paste. With your hands, combine everything well. Form 4 large oval patties, about 3/4 inches thick. In a non-stick skillet, fry the patties on each side for about 7 minutes under a loose tin foil tent, which enables the steam to escape the skillet. Remove from heat and allow to sit tented while you prepare the potatoes. In a medium pan, cover the quartered potatoes with with water. Bring to the boil and cook for about 10 minutes until the potatoes are tender. Drain the potatoes, return to the pan and place onto the stovetop to allow them to dry out. Once the potatoes are dry, add the butter, sour cream, scallions, salt and pepper and milk and mash. Remove the patties from the skillet and return the skillet to medium heat. Brown the butter and add the remaining onions, cooking for about 2 minutes. Sprinkle the pan with flour and cook for a further minute before adding 1 cup beef stock. Allow the mixture to come to a bubble, taste and add salt and pepper if necessary. Thicken or thin your gravy to desired consistency by either adding more flour to thicken or more stock to thin. Once at the desired consistency, add in the ketchup, mustard and steak sauce. Slice the meatloaf patties and add a spoonful of your mashed potatoes to a plate, then cover generously in gravy.
