Ok...I know...been gone for a long while...but I kinda back...a little bit :)

There has been a few major changes and one of the biggest one is I'm not blogging from MI no more but from the very hot & humid Malaysia.

Yes, you read it right...I'm home away from home...if that makes any sense. :) Now instead of craving for asian food, I'm craving for american food. Here, it's not very easy to come by and not very cheap either. Not to say that I staying away from asian food, is just that I need alot more variety. So used to that in the States...

Anywho, found this at food network and my mouth is watering... :)

Recipe: Mini Skillet Meatloaves
foodnetwork.com

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1/3 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 small onion, finely minced
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
  • 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
  • salt & freshly ground pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (optional, coz I know you can't find it here...I just use a mixture of water & vinegar)
Here we go...

Mix the breadcrumbs, milk, parsley, egg, Worcestershire sauce, onion, chili powder and garlic in a large bowl.

Add the meat in, season it with salt and pepper and mix thoroughly. Shape into six 3-to-4-inch oval loaves.

Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Slowly add the loaves and brown each side for about 3 minutes.

In another bowl, whisk the ketchup, sugar and vinegar and brush a few tablespoonfuls over the meat.

Add 1/2 cup water to the skillet, cover and simmer over low heat until cooked, about 15 minutes.

Once cooked, transfer the loaves onto a plate.

Add in the remaining ketchup mixture to the skillet and cook over high heat and stir until it thickens, for about 3 to 5 minutes.

Serve the meatloaves with the hot glaze and enjoy!
