Servings: persons

1/2 pound ground beef
1/2 pound ground pork
1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
2 gloves garlic, finely chopped
1-2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon tomato paste
pepper to taste
1/2 cup panko crumbs
5 dashes worchestershire sauce
1 egg
2 1/2 tablespoons heavy creme
2 tablespoons freshly grated pecorino romano
1/4 cup shelled whole pastachios
4-6 strips of bacon

1
I usually start with my ground meat first and make a well in the middle of the meat, then I start adding each ingredient one by one. Add all the ingredients on list, stopping at pastachios and bacon. Just a note: This time I used pecorino romano cheese, but I generally use what ever hard cheese I have on hand. It tastes great with parmesan cheese as well.
2
Mix together well. I like to mix my meatloaf in a wide shallow bowl. My mom does it right on the chopping block. I can not imagine mixing meatloaf without getting my hands right into it. I have also made this meatloaf with ground veal and pork combination with great success.
3
After meat mixture is mixed well, add in the pastachios and blend through out.
4
Form into a loaf shape and place in baking dish.
5
Wrap loaf with strips of bacon. Sometimes I like them to completely cover the loaf and other times I like to leave some space in between so that I can see the meatloaf. It depends on my mood and how much bacon I have.
6
Place in a 350F preheated oven for about 40 minutes. Sometimes, I like to crisp up the bacon more by sticking under the broiler for a minute. Other times, it does not feel necessary.
