Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Heat the butter in a small skillet and add the onion and garlic. Cook until wilted, and cool briefly.
- Step 2
Place the meat in a mixing bowl and add the bread crumbs, nutmeg, Tabasco, cumin, salt and pepper. Add the onion mixture, herbs of your choice and yogurt, then blend well. Pack the mixture into a loaf pan about 9 by 5 by 3 inches. Smooth the top with a spatula.
- Step 3
Set the pan in a baking dish and pour 1½ inches of boiling water around the pan. Bake for 45 minutes.
- Step 4
Let rest in a warm place for about 15 minutes before serving. Serve with the mushroom sauce.
- Ground chicken can be substituted for the veal, or use a half-and-half mixture of both. This meat loaf is very good served cold with a salad.
