Ingredients
The quantities follow this count.
How to cook it
-
Preheat the oven to 375 F and soak the bread roll in the water until soft, then squeeze out the excess liquid.
-
In a large bowl, combine the ground pork and beef, softened bread, onion, eggs, mustard, parsley, marjoram, salt, and pepper, and mix until just combined without overworking it.
-
Shape the mixture into a firm loaf and place it in a greased baking dish or loaf pan.
-
Spread the tomato paste over the top of the loaf.
-
Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until cooked through and the top is nicely browned, then let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
-
Serve warm, or slice it cold the next day for sandwiches; this batch-cooks and reheats well.
