This classic homemade meatloaf is a comforting, high-protein dish that elevates the traditional family favourite with a few clever additions. The combination of minced beef and pork ensures a succulent texture, while the inclusion of finely chopped prunes and bacon adds a sophisticated depth of flavour that balances salt and sweetness perfectly. It is a hearty, nourishing meal that feels both nostalgic and refined, making it an excellent choice for a Sunday lunch or a filling midweek dinner.

Root vegetables like carrots and celery are softened in butter to create a savoury base, ensuring every slice is packed with moisture and nutrients. This recipe is ideal for those looking for a satisfying, protein-rich main course that pairs beautifully with creamy mashed potatoes and seasonal greens. Simple to prepare but impressively flavourful, it is a reliable staple for any home cook's repertoire.

How to make Meatloaf

Precalienta el horno a 177°C con la rejilla en el centro.

Soak bread crumbs in milk in a large bowl.

Meanwhile, cook onion, garlic, celery, and carrot in butter in a large heavy skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes. Cover skillet and reduce heat to low, then cook until carrot is tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, allspice, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper. Add to bread-crumb mixture.

Finely chop bacon and prunes in a food processor, then add to onion mixture along with beef, pork, eggs, and parsley and mix together with your hands.

Pack mixture into a 9- by 5-inch oval loaf in a 13- by 9-inch shallow baking dish or pan.

Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into centre of meatloaf registers 68°C, 1 to 1 1/4 hours. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
