Turkey Meatloaf
Our daughter, Hayley, is a typical teenage girl - she's not
very much into meat dishes.
So, I have to be creative to get her to
eat meat.
She is pretty keen on this recipe though
and often looks in the fridge for left-overs the next day. Jeremy likes the cold left-overs
cut thin and placed in his sandwiches the next day.

Ingredients:
750 gm (1 and 1/2 pounds) turkey mince
1 cup of soft breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon Bonox
1 onion, finely chopped
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons tomato sauce (ketchup)
3/4 cup of skimmed milk
1 teaspoon dry mustard powder
Glaze:
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 cup tomato sauce (ketchup)
1 tablespoon brown sugar
Method:
Pre heat oven to 200
degrees Celsius.
In a small bowl combine the glaze
ingredients and set aside.
In a large bowl mix together all the
other ingredients. This mixture will be very moist -
that's OK. Press into a loaf tin measuring 20 cm
x 10 cm (8" x 4").
Up-end the tin and the filling onto an
foil covered baking tray, leaving the tin on top of the
loaf. This will ensure it keeps its shape well.
Cook for 15 minutes at 200 degrees Celsius (400 degrees
Fahrenheit). Remove from the oven and carefully lift
off the loaf tin. Pour the glaze over the loaf.
Return the meatloaf to the oven but don't place the tin back
on top. Cook for a further 50 minutes.
Notes:
I use turkey mince in lieu of beef
mince as it is less fatty but this recipe will work well
using any type of mince.
Bonox is concentrated beef extract.
Worcestershire sauce is a thin, brown, spicy, bottled sauce.
This is delicious cold the next day. slice thinly and put
into sandwiches.
Food Facts:
The male turkey is called a tom. The
female turkey is called a hen. A turkey under sixteen
weeks of age is called a fryer, while a young
roaster is five to seven months old. Israelis
consume the highest amount of turkey meat per capita. Turkey
meat is high in vitamins B3, B6 and B12 which are needed to
ensure a healthy nervous system. It is also a good
source of iron, selenium and zinc.
