How to Make Classic Homemade Meatloaf
Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F). Line a loaf pan or baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Chop the onion and red bell pepper finely. You want small pieces so they blend seamlessly into the meatloaf.
Step 2: Mix the Meatloaf Base
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped onion, chopped red bell pepper, breadcrumbs, ketchup, and eggs.
- Add the seasonings: salt, black pepper, sweet paprika, dried parsley, and granulated garlic.
- Using clean hands or a spatula, gently mix the ingredients until everything is evenly incorporated. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the meatloaf dense.
Step 3: Shape the Meatloaf
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared loaf pan or shape it into a loaf by hand and place it on a baking sheet.
- Press down gently to compact the mixture, ensuring it holds its shape while cooking.
