Ingredients
Meatloaf:
- 4 slices bread ripped up into 2-inch pieces
- ½ cup milk
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 onion finely chopped
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 2 pounds ground beef mince regular or lean
- 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese please use fresh
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup parsley chopped
- 3 level tablespoons tomato paste
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
Glaze:
- ¾ cup ketchup Australian tomato sauce
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar packed
- 4 tablespoons cider vinegar or white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon cracked black pepper
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (or 200°C). Lightly grease a broiler pan (oven grill pan), or regular baking sheet.
- In a large bowl, soak bread slices in the milk, pressing them down with your fingers. Allow to soak while sautéing the onion.
- Heat the oil in a small pan over medium heat and sauté the onion until soft and translucent (about 5 minutes). Add the garlic and sauté for a further 30 seconds until fragrant. Set aside and allow to cool slightly.
- Mash the soaked bread with a fork to break up large pieces. Add in the onion/garlic, beef, parmesan, eggs, parsley, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, salt and pepper. Mix with your hands until everything is just combined (try not to over-mix).
- Scoop meat mixture into a loaf pan, pressing down lightly to form into a loaf shape. Turn out onto prepared tray.
- In a smaller bowl, mix together all the ingredients for the glaze. Spread half of the sauce evenly over the top; reserve the renaming sauce for later.
- Bake the meatloaf for 50 minutes, then spread half of the remaining sauce over the top. Return to the oven and bake for a further 20 minutes.
- Allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Mix any pan juices with the remaining sauce to serve!
- Serve with creamy mashed potatoes/cauliflower and/or steamed vegetables.
