It’s commonly agreed that no one makes meatloaf quite like Mom. But our chefs will settle for second best by taking a page from her book and passing on this recipe that stays about as true to tradition as can be. These ground beef mini loaves are brushed with a ketchup glaze, served with tender roasted carrots and potatoes, and drizzled with an herby thyme gravy. And if you’d like to claim this recipe as your own, don’t worry—we’ll stay mum.

Instructions

Prep
1

Adjust racks to top and middle positions and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and dry all produce. Halve and peel shallot. Grate one half with a grater into a medium bowl; mince other half. Mince garlic. Strip thyme leaves from stems and roughly chop. Halve carrots lengthwise. Cut potato into ½-inch-thick wedges.

Roast Veggies
2

Toss carrots on one baking sheet with a drizzle of olive oil. Toss potato on a separate baking sheet with another drizzle of olive oil. Season both with salt and pepper. Roast carrots on top rack and potato on middle rack until browned and tender, 20-25 minutes total (we’ll add more ingredients to the sheet with carrots after 7 minutes).

Make Meatloaves
3

Meanwhile, to bowl with grated shallot, add beef, garlic, half the thyme, ¼ cup panko (½ cup for 4 servings), salt, and pepper (we used ¾ tsp kosher salt). Gently combine, then shape mixture into two (four for 4 servings) 1-inch-tall loaves.

Bake Meatloaves
4

Once carrots have roasted 7 minutes, remove from oven, leaving potato roasting. Push carrots to one side of sheet. Place meatloaves on opposite side, then brush tops of loaves with 1 TBSP ketchup (2 TBSP for 4 servings). Return to oven and continue roasting until meatloaves are cooked through, 15-18 minutes more.

Make Gravy
5

Meanwhile, melt ½ TBSP butter (1 TBSP for 4 servings) in a medium pan over medium heat. Add minced shallot and remaining thyme. Cook, stirring, until softened, 3-4 minutes. Sprinkle flour into pan, stirring vigorously to combine. Whisk in stock concentrate and ½ cup water (1 cup for 4 servings). Bring to a simmer and let bubble until thickened and saucy, 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Finish and Plate
6

Slice meatloaves crosswise. Divide meatloaves and veggies between plates. Spoon gravy over meatloaves and serve.
