How to cook deliciously - Martha Stewart's Meat Loaf Sandwiches
1. Stage
For meat loaf: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Mix milk and bread in a large bowl, and let stand 5 minutes. Mix in remaining ingredients through salt using your hands; season with pepper. Form meat mixture into a 5-inch by 12-inch loaf on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until browned and meat loaf registers 140 degrees on an instant-read thermometer, about 1 hour. Let cool slightly, then cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices.
2. Stage
For tomato relish: Preheat broiler. Arrange tomatoes on a baking sheet, and brush with oil. Broil tomatoes until softened and charred, 5 to 10 minutes. Let cool, then chop.
3. Stage
Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add shallots, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add water and sugar, bring to a simmer, and cook until reduced by half. Add charred tomatoes, vinegar, and honey, and cook, stirring occasionally, 4 minutes. Stir in cayenne and salt. Strain, and discard liquid. Let cool. (Relish will keep, covered and refrigerated, for up to 3 days.)
4. Stage
To assemble: Purée garlic and oil in a blender. Brush 1 side of each slice of bread with garlic oil. Top half the bread with meat loaf, tomato relish, and mâche. Top with remaining bread, garlic-oil side down. Serve with Perfect Fries.
