A comforting beefloaf infused with caramelized onions and topped with Swiss cheese, perfect for family dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 900 grams ground beef
  • 120 grams breadcrumbs
  • 50 grams grated Parmesan cheese
  • 60 milliliters whole milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 15 milliliters Worcestershire sauce
  • 5 grams fine sea salt

Instructions

  1. Blend the ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, milk, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper in a large mixing bowl until well combined.
  2. Form the beef mixture into a compact loaf and arrange it in the base of the crockpot.
