Wellington Meat Loaf
Meat Loaf Ingredients:
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup of milk
1/4 cup of catsup
1 - 1 3/8 oz. package of dry onion soup mix
1 tablespoon of chopped parsley
2 slices of bread torn into pieces
2 lbs. of a mixture of ground beef, veal, and pork
1 - 7/8 oz. package of mushroom gravy mix
Pastry Ingredients:
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons of all purpose flour
A dash of salt
1 tablespoon of shortening
2 tablespoons of butter cut into pieces
1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons of cold water
Combine the flour and salt in a mixing bowl. Cut in the shortening,
then cut in the butter until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in
the water with a fork. Wrap the dough in wax paper and chill for
30 minutes. Place dough on a floured surface and roll to about 1/8"
thick.
Combine the eggs, milk, catsup, the onion soup mix and mix well. Add
to the meat mixture and mix thoroughly. Place the meat mixture into a
13" X 9" X 2" pan and shape into a loaf. Center the pastry over the
meat
loaf, tucking the pastry around the bottom of the meat loaf to seal in
the
juices. Prick the top of the pastry with a fork.
Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Prepare the mushroom
gravy according to the package directions and serve over the meat
loaf.
