- 4 tablespoons of Stefano’s olive oil
- 250 ml of white wine dry or rosé
- 2 sprigs of rosemary
* You can substitute for 300gr minced pork and 300gr minced veal or beef
PREPARATION:
- Preheat oven at 350 F
- In a big bowl combine veal, pork, mortadella, porsciutto cotto, breadcrumbs, milk, 2 eggs, lemon zest, olive oil, parmesan cheese and season with sea salt with fresh herbs and mix well with your hands.
- On a piece of parchment paper flatten the mixture using the palms of your hands to form a rectangle 10in(24cm) long by 8in(20cm) wide 1 1/2 in(4cm) thick.
- Cut a thin slice off the ends of each hard-boiled egg and place in the middle of the mixture. Wrap the meat over the eggs forming a large roast, putting-the ends together to seal them.
- Rub with butter and olive oil in an Emile Henry oven proof dish, place the meatloaf and add the rosemary. Cook in the oven for about 1 1/2 hours, using 1/2 cup of the wine, baste the meatloaf several times during the cooking.
- Remove meatloaf and keep warm.
- In a small saucepan add the sauce of the meatloaf and pour 1/2 cup of wine and reduce the sauce.
- Arrange the slices on a serving dish, pour the sauce and serve.
- Serve with green French beans or a salad.
- This is also excellent when served cold.
