I think that's one of the leche royal variants; I think it's in one of
the Two 15th-Century Cookery-Books. I never really associated it with
meatloaf, myself (which I would interpret as shaping raw meat into a
loaf and cooking it, with the possible exception of salmon loaf, which
can be made from cooked or even canned salmon) but I suppose you could
see it that way. IIRC, you cook and chop meat (probably pork or capon)
and make a sort of haggis-y structure, which you then cut into
half-rounds, reminiscent of peasecods, for service. I don't recall if
further cooking is involved.
