MEATLOAF STUFFED WITH EGGS (KLOPSY)

Steps:

• Peel the hard-boiled eggs and quarter them lengthwise.
• Soak the stale bread in water, and when soft, squeeze out the excess water and mince.
• Peel and chop the onion and fry in butter until lightly golden- set aside.
• Mince the meat with the bread, onion and beaten egg.
• Add salt and pepper and knead until all ingredients are combined.
• Sprinkle the breadcrumbs on a large board and place the meat mixture on top, spreading it fairly thin to form a rectangle (A4 size).
• Place egg quarters along one side, pointing them towards the middle.
• Sprinkle with parsley.
• Roll the meat up into a thick cylinder, starting from the side where the eggs are so that they will be in the middle.
• Heat the oven to 220°C/425°F.
• Grease a fairly deep baking dish.
• Add the meatloaf, basting with some oil/butter.
• Cover tray with foil and bake for 1 hour 15 minutes, basting frequently.
• Cut into slices and serve.
