How to Make Russian Stuffed Meatloaf

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a small skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and sauté until lightly colored, about 12 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, soak 1 cup of bread cubes in 1/2 cup of milk for 10 minutes.
  4. Squeeze the bread to remove excess milk and crumble into a large bowl.
  5. Discard the remaining milk.
  6. Add 2 pounds ground beef to the bread bowl along with the cooked onions (with the butter), 2 large eggs, 1/4 cup ice water, 1/2 cup sour cream, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  7. Knead the meatloaf mixture until thoroughly blended.
  8. Set the meatloaf mixture aside.
  9. In a second bowl, combine 4 hard-cooked eggs, chopped, 1/2 cup chopped scallions, and 1 tablespoon melted butter.
  10. Season lightly with salt and pepper and mix well.
  11. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  12. Spread the meatloaf mixture on a large piece of waxed paper into a 12x10-inch rectangle.
  13. Spread the egg and scallion stuffing evenly over the meat mixture, leaving a 1-inch border on all sides.
  14. Roll up the meatloaf like a jelly roll, starting on one long side, peeling back the waxed paper as you roll.
  15. Place the roll, seam side down, on the prepared baking sheet.
  16. Spread 1/4 cup mayonnaise over the roll using a rubber spatula. Sprinkle generously with 1/2 cup bread crumbs and 1 tablespoon sweet and hot paprika.
  17. Bake for 1 hour.
  18. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing into thick slices and serving.
