Have been making this for years, one of my mother's recipes


Ingredients (serves 6)

  • 1 kg beef mince
  • 1 medium brown onion, finely chopped
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 medium zucchini, grated
  • 1 small carrot, peeled, grated
  • 1 tbs Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tbs tomato paste
  • 2 tbs chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
  • 1/4 cup BBQ Sauce

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 180C/160C fan-forced. Grease a 6cm-deep, 11cm x 21cm loaf pan.
  2. Combine mince, onion, breadcrumbs, egg, garlic, zucchini, carrot, worcestershire sauce, tomato paste and parsley in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Press mixture into the prepared pan. Smooth surface.
  3. Bake for 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes, or until meatloaf is firm. Stand for 5 minutes. Drain away excess pan juices. Carefully turn meatloaf, top-side up, onto a baking tray lined with baking paper. Brush top and sides with barbecue sauce. Bake for 15 minutes or until sauce is caramelised. Stand for 5 minutes before slicing

  • I love a good meatloaf recipe, especially one that you can add some extra vegies to. This sounds like it would be really full of flavour. I’d love to try it with a little chilli added to the glaze.
