Before you begin cooking a delicious polpettone, make sure you have all the necessary ingredients at hand. Here’s what you’ll need:
  • 500 grams of ground beef
  • 1 cup of breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup of milk
  • 1/4 cup of chopped parsley
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup of marinara sauce

Step 2: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) to ensure it’s ready when you finish preparing the polpettone.

Step 3: Mix the Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, eggs, milk, chopped parsley, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Use your hands to thoroughly mix all the ingredients together. This will help create a cohesive mixture for your polpettone.

Step 4: Shape the Polpettone

Transfer the mixture onto a clean surface and shape it into a loaf-like form. You can make it rectangular or oval-shaped depending on your preference. Ensure it’s tightly packed to avoid crumbling during cooking.

Step 5: Place in a Baking Dish

Grease a baking dish with some cooking spray or olive oil to prevent sticking. Carefully transfer the shaped polpettone into the dish and lightly press it down to flatten the top.

Step 6: Add Marinara Sauce

Pour the marinara sauce over the polpettone, ensuring it covers the top and sides. This will not only infuse the meat with flavor but also keep it moist during baking.

Step 7: Bake in the Oven

Place the baking dish with the polpettone in the preheated oven. Allow it to bake for approximately 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reaches 70°C (160°F). The top should turn golden brown.

Step 8: Rest and Serve

Once cooked, remove the polpettone from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. This will make it easier to slice. Serve your delicious polpettone warm and enjoy!

Now that you have this step-by-step guide, you can easily cook a mouthwatering polpettone that will surely impress your family and friends. The combination of quality ingredients and careful cooking will result in a flavorful and juicy dish that everyone will love. Happy cooking!
