Mini Meatloaves
4 ounces baby carrots
4 ounces celery rib, cut into 1-inch pieces
4 ounces onion, cut into chunks
3 sprigs sprigs fresh thyme, stripped off stems
1 handful fresh parsley
1 ounce canola oil
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
4 large eggs, cracked and beaten
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup whole milk
1/2 tablespoon minced garlic
2.5 pounds 85-percent-lean ground beef
1.5 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon pepper
10 pieces sliced pancetta
1 can fried onions, for garnish
Red Wine Reduction Sauce
1 cup red wine
1 cup beef stock
1 cup jarred or homemade gravy
1 ounce tomato paste
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste

1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
2
In a food processor, finely chop carrots, celery, onion, thyme leaves and parsley. Saute in oil in a fry pan over medium-high heat. Remove from heat.
3
Start sauce by simmering the wet ingredients together in a sauce pan on low-medium heat.
4
Place remaining components for the meatloaves, except pancetta and fried onions, in a large mixing bowl. Mix well with the sauted vegetables and herbs. ( It's okay for the mixture to be a little loose. End result will be moist meatloaves.)
5
Using the palms of your hands, form 10 round-shaped mini meatloaves, each topped with a slice of pancetta.
6
When sauce is reduced by half, break up any lumps of tomato paste, using a whisk. Adjust seasoning. Remove from heat; cover with a lid.
7
Place meatloaves on a baking tray and cook in oven about 10 minutes or until cooked through, rotating once. They are done when the internal temperatures reach 165 degrees F. Serve with French-fried onions and sauce.
