Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 50g fresh white breadcrumbs
- 4tbsp grated parmesan
- 300g minced beef
- 200g minced sausage
- 1 onion finely chopped
- 1 garlic clove finely chopped
- 1 egg beaten
- 1 tsp tomato puree
- Salt and pepper
Preheat the oven to 180. Mix 2tbsp of the breadcrumbs and parmesan in a small bowl and set aside. Tip the remaining ingredients into a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Mix the ingredients together – it is better to use your hands for this. Once the ingredients have been combined transfer into a loaf tin and sprinkle the remaining crumb mix on top. Bake in the oven for 40 to 45 minutes until the top is golden. Cool for 5 minutes then remove from the loaf tin. Slice and serve with your choice of potatoes and seasonal vegetables of your choice.
