I absolutely love the sweet and salty combination of this dish. You can easily make this a sheet pan meal by baking diced potatoes and veggies with it.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 lb ground pork
• 1 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
• 3 tbsps soy sauce
• 4 tbsps hoisin sauce
• 1 tbsp Sambal Oelek
• 1/3 cup East Asian-Style Sauteed Aromatics*

DIRECTIONS:

1. Place an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees.
2. In a bowl, combine the soy glaze, hoisin sauce, and as much of the sambal as you prefer. Stir to combine.
3. In a separate bowl, combine the pork, breadcrumbs, half the sauteed aromatics (you will have extra) and half the glaze. Season with salt and pepper and mix to combine.
4. Transfer to the center of the sheet pan and shape into a tight loaf, about 10 inches by 3 inches.
5. Evenly spread remaining glaze onto the meatloaf.
6. Bake for 22- 24 minutes.

*For the aromatics (cook in a pan for 5-7 minutes):

• 3 Tbsps finely chopped peeled ginger, about one 3” piece 
• 3 Tbsps finely chopped scallions 
• 1 Tbsp finely chopped garlic
• 3 Tbsps neutral oil
