Method · 2 h
- Place the minced meat in a bowl. Add the egg, breadcrumbs, plain flour, marjoram, crushed garlic, salt and ground pepper.
- We mix all the ingredients thoroughly to create a compact meat mixture.
- Cut the pickles lengthwise.
- Preheat the oven to 180 °C.
- Spread a piece of cling film on your work surface and spread the meat mixture onto it in the shape of a rectangle.
- Place the boiled eggs, sausages and pickles next to each other in the middle.
- Using foil, carefully wrap the mixture and shape it into a meatball cone. Gently press the finished meatball several times to remove any air inside.
- Transfer the meatloaf to a baking sheet or baking dish.
- Beat the egg with a fork and brush the surface of the meatloaf with it.
