This is an easy to prepare meatloaf, infused with a rich smoky aroma from the Mangalitza bacon. A versatile dish, you can serve it with a leafy green salad for a light lunch or with creamy mashed potatoes to create an indulgent dinner. It also travels well, so you can bring it along for a picnic or slice thinly for a delicious sandwich filling.
For this recipe, we would like to thank Aranka Turmezei, daughter of Hungarian/Croatian hoteliers.
