Embutido Filipino (Traditional Pork and Sausage Meatloaf)

In a mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, finely diced carrots, raisins, and a splash of soy sauce (for seasoning).

Form the mixture into a tight log and wrap it securely in aluminum foil, twisting the ends to ensure it holds its shape.

Place the foil log into a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for 35-40 minutes until firm to the touch and fully cooked through.

Meanwhile, prepare the steamed rice and broccoli.

Once the embutido is cooked, remove from the foil and allow it to rest for 5 minutes before slicing into 1-inch thick rounds.

Plate the slices alongside the warm rice and vibrant steamed broccoli.

Garnish with a drizzle of sweet tomato-based sauce (traditionally used in Filipino kitchens) to tie the flavors together.

The result is a comforting, savory-sweet balance that defines a Filipino Sunday dinner.
