Embutido Recipe (Filipino Meatloaf)
Just like your good old-fashioned meatloaf, embutido is a combination of ground meat, vegetables, and spices. It’s comfort food that is inexpensive and super easy to make. This version that I’m familiar with is log-shaped and best eaten with ketchup.
Equipment
Convection oven or steamer
Baking Sheet
Skillet
Ingredients
3 pounds ground pork and/or chicken
4 teaspoons kosher salt use half for table salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 carrot minced
1 yellow onion minced
1 red bell pepper minced
½ cup raisins
1 cup sweet relish
2 eggs
½ cup breadcrumbs
1 cup finely chopped sausage/chorizo optional
Instructions
1. Combine the meat, salt, pepper, sugar, garlic powder, and onion powder in a large bowl.
2. Add carrots, onions, red bell pepper, raisins, sweet relish, eggs, breadcrumbs, and chorizo (if using).
3. With your hands, mix until incorporated. Do not overmix.
4. Taste it by frying a small portion. Adjust as necessary.
5. Divide the mixture into 6 portions and place each on aluminum foil.
6. Roll into a 6-inch log, 2 inches in diameter. Wrap it tightly and twist the ends.
7. Arrange them on a baking sheet. Bake at 350° F (177° C) for 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165° F (74° C) for chicken or 160° F (71° C) for pork. Let them cool.
You can also steam them over simmering water for about 30 minutes.
8. Fry them in a bit of oil over medium-high heat until lightly browned.
