  • 2 tablespoons gochujang (Korean chili paste)

  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup ketchup (for topping)

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef and ground pork.
  2. Add the breadcrumbs to the meat mixture.
  3. Pour in the milk.
  4. Add the soy sauce, gochujang, brown sugar, and sesame oil. Mix well.
  5. Add the minced garlic, chopped onion, and green onions.
  6. Crack the egg into the bowl.
  7. Sprinkle in the black pepper and salt.
  8. Mix everything together until just combined.
  9. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  10. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a loaf pan.
  11. Transfer the meat mixture onto the prepared baking sheet or into the loaf pan, shaping it into a loaf about 2 inches high.
  12. In a small bowl, mix the ketchup with a tablespoon of gochujang.
  13. Spread the ketchup mixture evenly over the top of the meatloaf.
