A traditional and delicious South African version of meatloaf. Serve with boiled rice and chutney. Ingredients:
2 onions, thickly sliced |
3 cups water, or as needed |
1 tablespoon vegetable oil |
1 slice white bread |
1 cup milk |
2 pounds lean ground beef |
1 tablespoon curry powder |
2 eggs |
1 tablespoon white sugar |
2 teaspoons salt |
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper |
1/2 teaspoon turmeric (optional) |
2 tablespoons vinegar |
3 tablespoons chutney |
6 almonds |
1/2 cup raisins |
4 bay leaves |
Directions:
1. Heat water in a saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil and add the onion slices. Reduce heat and simmer until the onions appear translucent, 3 to five minutes. Remove the onions and finely chop them.
2. Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion; cook and stir until the onion has browned slightly.
3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 7x11-inch baking dish.
4. Soak the slice of bread in the milk and gently squeeze out the milk; set the milk aside. Crumb the bread into a large mixing bowl. Mix bread together with ground beef, curry powder, 1 egg, sugar, salt, black pepper, turmeric, vinegar, chutney, almonds and raisins.
5. Place the mixture the prepared baking dish. Insert the bay leaves into the meat. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour.
6. Beat the remaining egg with 3 tablespoons of the drained milk. Pour over the meat and bake for another 30 minutes.
