Bacon And Cabbage Loaf Recipes

FRIED CABBAGE WITH BACON

Steps:

• Cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove bacon and set aside. Add onion and garlic and cook in bacon grease until onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in cabbage, paprika, sugar, salt, and pepper; mix to combine. Cook for about 10 minutes.
• Stir cooked bacon into the skillet with the cabbage mixture. Simmer over low heat until cabbage reaches the desired consistency, 20 to 30 minutes. Serve hot or warm.

BACON AND CABBAGE LOAF

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to a moderately hot temperature.
• Lightly grease a loaf pan.
• Heat the butter in a sauté pan (preferably non-stick) and sauté the diced capsicum, bacon, onions and garlic until the capsicum and onions are just beginning to soften.
• Add the potato and cabbage and, while stirring, sauté the mixture for about 5 minutes or until the cabbage has softened.
• Transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl to help it to cool.
• Add the herbs: the marjoram, thyme and parsley.
• Once the mixture has cooled, stir in the flour, the lightly beaten eggs and the grated parmesan.
• Stir until all the ingredients are well combined.
• Press the mixture into the lightly greased loaf pan.
• Bake in a moderately hot oven for about 40 minutes or until firm.
• Serve with salad and tzaziki, your favourite sauce or salsa or with my warm cucumber sauce, recipe #118672 for Salmon Loaf and Cucumber Sauce.
• Chef's Note: Because the sizes of potatoes and onions vary, because undoubtedly I've often used more than strictly "3 cups" of cabbage, and because sometimes I've certainly used more parmesan, the final quantity of the mixture has varied. And really exact proportions are not crucial with a recipe like this. So if you have more mixture than will fit into your loaf pan, butter an appropriately-sized small casserole dish for the spillover amount. Keep an eye on the dish with the smaller quantity in it: it will probably need to come out of the oven well before the loaf pan.

BACON-WRAPPED MEAT LOAF

Steps:

• In a small skillet, saute onion and garlic in oil for 4-5 minutes or until tender., Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the milk, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon, pepper sauce, saltine, parsley and seasonings; stir in onion mixture. Crumble meats over mixture and mix well. With wet hands, shape into a loaf and place in a greased foil-lined 13-in.x 9-in. baking dish., In a small saucepan, combine the sauce ingredients; cook and stir until the sugar is dissolved and sauce has thickened. Spoon some sauce over loaf; place bacon over top., Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 50-55 minutes or until no pink remains and a thermometer reads 160°.

BACON-WRAPPED MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) .
• Combine ground beef, ground sausage, crushed crackers, ketchup, onion, eggs, onion powder, and garlic powder in a large bowl until mixed thoroughly, using your hands for best results. Form mixture into a loaf shape.
• Weave strips of bacon into a basket weave pattern. Place meatloaf in the center and carefully lift and transfer to a loaf pan, so bacon is on the bottom and sides of the pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 1 1/2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Allow to sit for 5 minutes before carefully flipping onto a platter.
