Meat Loaf with Tahini

serves 4 – 6

Ingredients
750g minced lamb or beef
2 onions finely chopped
1 clove garlic finely chopped

3 tbsp chopped parsley
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground allspice
For the topping

  2. Mix all the ingredients for the loaf together in a bowl.
  3. Grease a loaf tin (21cm by 11cm) with butter, press mixture into tin.
  4. Place  in  oven for 15  minutes or until browned on top.
  5. Combine all the topping ingredients, apart from the sesame seeds.

Kathy, who this recipe is a favourite, makes double the topping for this recipe.

Delicious with Swiss chard or creamed spinach and baked potatoes
