Running out of recipe ideas for dinner? Try this easy meatloaf recipe – an adapted Mince Kebab Recipe topped with Amma’s Tomato Chutney. Meatloaf makes for a simple yet hearty meal. Essentially made with mince meat, the addition of bread crumbs, egg and milk account for it’s loaf like texture. It can be bulked up with fiber by adding grated carrots and chopped herbs. Traditional recipes are topped with a tomato sauce glaze, I’ve opted for good old chutney.
Meatloaf can be served with a variety of vegetable sides and or salad. I’ve opted for braised Butternut and a green salad. It serves just as well in a meatloaf sandwich the day after…if there is any leftover!
