How to Make Zesty Filipino Embutido with Tangy Ketchup Glaze

Total time: 2 h 20 min · Yields 6 servings

1
Assembling the Embutido
Place a piece of aluminum foil (12x10 inches) on a flat surface. Spread an even layer of the meat mixture onto the foil, leaving about 2 inches from the edges.
2
Filling the Embutido
Place boiled eggs and halved sausages in the center of the meat spread. Add bits of cheese along the line of the boiled eggs and sausages.
3
Rolling the Embutido
Carefully roll the meat into a log, sealing the foil tightly to secure the shape. Twist the ends of the foil to lock. Repeat for other embutido rolls.
