Mod de preparare

Pas cu pas

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F).

    Aproximativ 5 min.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, add the ground beef, cooked rice, chopped onion, green bell pepper, beaten egg, salt, and dried thyme.

    Aproximativ 3 min.

  3. 3

    Pour in the tomato sauce designated for the meatloaf and mix gently with your hands until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

    Aproximativ 2 min.

    Nota bucătarului: Overmixing can make the meatloaf tough.

  4. 4

    Shape the mixture into a rectangular loaf and place it in a shallow baking dish or on a foil-lined baking sheet.

    Aproximativ 2 min.

  5. 5

    Bake for 1 hour, or until the meatloaf is cooked through and browned on top.

    Aproximativ 1 oră

    Nota bucătarului: An instant-read thermometer should register 71°C (160°F) in the center.

  6. 6

    While the meatloaf bakes, prepare the sauce. Heat the vegetable oil in a small saucepan over medium heat.

    Aproximativ 1 min.

  7. 7

    Add the sliced celery to the saucepan and cook for about 5 minutes, until it begins to soften.

    Aproximativ 5 min.

  8. 8

    Pour in the remaining tomato sauce for the sauce, stir to combine, and bring the mixture to a simmer.

    Aproximativ 3 min.

  9. 9

    Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer gently for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

    Aproximativ 10 min.

  10. 10

    Once baked, remove the meatloaf from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

    Aproximativ 10 min.

    Nota bucătarului: Resting allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful meatloaf.

  11. 11

    Slice the meatloaf and serve warm, topped with the prepared tomato sauce and a sprinkle of fresh parsley.

    Aproximativ 2 min.
