Ingredients
- 2 lb Ground pork
- 1 Carrots
- 1/2 Bell pepper
- 1/3 cup Raisins
- 1/4 cup Sweet pickle relish
- 4 Eggs
- 1/2 cup Breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup Cheddar
- 3 Hard-boiled eggs
Steps
- Mix the pork, diced carrots, bell pepper, raisins, relish, 2 beaten eggs, breadcrumbs, and diced cheddar until just combined — overmixing makes it dense.
- Divide in half. On foil, shape each half into a 10-inch log; line the center with halved hard-boiled eggs.
- Roll tight, twisting the foil ends like a candy wrapper to compact the log.
- Steam 45 minutes, until firm and the juices run clear.
- Cool 15 minutes before unwrapping — slicing hot embutido crumbles it.
- Slice into 1/2-inch rounds to show the egg mosaic. Serve with banana ketchup; it’s meatloaf through a Filipino fiesta lens.
