Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Finely mince
yellow onion and scoop onto the center of a
towel, gather up the ends of the towel, and
squeeze out the liquid from the onions. Place
the onions into a mixing bowl along with the
lamb and beef. Season with the garlic, oregano,
cumin, marjoram, rosemary, thyme, black pepper,
and salt. Mix well with your hands until well
combined. Cover, and refrigerate 1 to 2 hours
to allow the flavors to blend.
Place meat mixture into blender and pulse for
about a minute until finely chopped and the
mixture feels tacky. Pack the meat mixture into
a 7x4 inch loaf pan, making sure there are no
air pockets. Line a roasting pan with a damp
kitchen towel. Place the loaf pan on the towel,
inside the roasting pan, and place into the
preheated oven. Fill the roasting pan with
boiling water to reach halfway up the sides of
the loaf pan.
