Directions
Sauté cabbage and onion in the oil in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring them often, for about 5 minutes.
Reduce the heat to medium low and sauté the vegetables for 5 to 10 minutes longer or until cabbage begins to turn golden.
Add the carrots and garlic; sauté the vegetables another 5 minutes.
Remove the vegetables from the heat and let them cool to room temperature.
In a large bowl, combine the beef with the egg white and whole egg, bread crumbs, basil, oregano, black pepper, water and vinegar.
Add the cooked vegetables and shredded potatoes to the beef mixture.
Mix ingredients well.
In a shallow baking pan, shape the meat and vegetable mixture into a loaf about 8 inches long.
Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil. Bake the meat loaf in a preheated 350℉ (180℃) oven for 30 minutes.
Uncover the meat loaf and bake it 30 minutes longer.
Let the meat loaf rest for about 15 minutes before slicing it.
Serves 8.
