Forloren Hare
Bacon-covered pork-and-beef meatloaf with a milk-based redcurrant gravy.
About Forloren Hare
Tove Balle-Pedersen shares a Danish forloren hare based on her mother's classic. The mock hare is a pork-and-beef meatloaf covered with bacon, with no hare meat in the mixture.
Egg and plain breadcrumbs give the seasoned mince its body. Bacon supplies a savoury outer layer, contrasting with the mild milk-based gravy and the sweetness of redcurrant jelly.
Tove's woven bacon presentation is her own embellishment to the family dish. The loaf and its gravy form a substantial serving, with the bacon cover visible above the slices.
