Mashed Potato-Topped Meatloaf Oven Recipe



Ingredients needed:

* 1 1/2 lbs. large baking potatoes, cut into thirds
* 1/3 cup of milk, warmed
* 3 tablespoons of butter, softened
* Salt and pepper
* 1 lb. ground beef
* 2 eggs
* 1 1/2 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce
* 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder
* 1 bunch of scallions, finely chopped
* 1 bunch of flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
* 1/3 cup of sour cream

Preparation steps:

* Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
* In a large pot of cold, salted water, bring the potatoes to a boil over high heat.
* Lower the heat to medium and cook until tender, about 20 minutes; drain. When cool enough to handle, remove and discard the skins and transfer the potatoes to a bowl.
* Mash with the warm milk and 2 tablespoons of butter until almost smooth.
* Season with salt and pepper; let cool to room temperature.
* Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the beef, eggs, Worcestershire sauce and onion powder with 2/3 of the scallions, 2/3 of the parsley, 4 tablespoons of the sour cream and 1/2 cup of the mashed potatoes; season.
* Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Transfer the beef mixture to the pan and shape into an 8-inch by 4-inch loaf.
* Bake for 30 minutes.
* Stir the remaining scallions, parsley and sour cream into the remaining mashed potatoes.
* Pat potatoes onto the meatloaf and dot with the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter.
* Bake 15 minutes longer.
* Let meatloaf rest for 5 minutes before serving.
