Ingredients

2 beef bouillon cubes
1 cup mashed potatoes
6 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup water
Fresh parsley, chopped, to taste
4 tablespoons creamy cheese spread

Where to find ingredients

Vegetable oil, onions, ground meat, beef bouillon cubes, mashed potatoes, cornstarch, and fresh parsley can be found at most grocery stores. Creamy cheese spread is available in the dairy or cheese section of supermarkets.

Preparation method

  3. Add the ground meat to the skillet and cook, stirring to break it up, until it loses its pink color and browns
  4. Dissolve the beef bouillon cubes in the meat mixture and stir well
  5. In a separate bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in cold water until a homogeneous mixture is obtained
  6. Pour the cornstarch mixture into the skillet with the meat, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens slightly
  7. Incorporate the mashed potatoes and chopped parsley, mixing everything until the mixture is uniform
  8. Transfer the meat mixture to a baking dish, spreading it evenly
  9. Cover the surface of the meatloaf with the creamy cheese spread, spreading it in a smooth layer
  10. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese spread melts and lightly browns
  11. Remove from the oven and serve the meatloaf hot
