Meat Loaf

My seven years old sweetie pie has a week or so to bid good bye to her summer vacation . In this age , she has already grown an irresistable and passionate interest in cooking !! Pretty much sure , she got it genetically !! 😀

Anyways , today wanted to make something easy with her , something she loves !! Meatloaf !! She simply loves it ! Well , who doesn’t !!!!

I made a smaller one !! Good enough for 3 servings !!!

Ingredients :

1 and 1/4 th cup minced beef

1/2 ( half) heaped tea spoon of finely grated garlic / garlic paste

1 tea spoon ginger pasted

1 and 1/2 tbl spoon finely minced onion

1 and half tea spoon yellow mustard

2 tea spoon worcestershire sauce

1 tbl spoon chopped parsley

1 tea spoon Italian seasoning

1/2 tea spoon red chili powder

3/4 th tea spoon black pepper powder

1 tbl spoon melted butter

1 egg , beaten

2 tbl spoon milk

1/3rd cup bread crumbs

Salt to taste

Other Ingredients :

3 tbl spoon bar b que sauce

2 tbl spoon Ketcup

Procedure :

1. Combine all the ingredients mentioned except the ingredients mentioned in other ingredients . In another small bowl combine the bar b que sauce and ketcup.

2. Line a baling tray with aluminium foil and and place the mince in a shape of loaf . keep it in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour .

3. Preheat the oven to 350 FH . Bake the meat loaf for 30 minutes , then take it out and brush all the bar b que , ketchup mixture . Then broil again for another 10-15 minutes . Don’t cut the loaf immediately . Cut after 10-15 minutes later .

4. I love to pan fry the loaf pieces with little butter for the charred and crisp flavor . Take 2 tbl spoon of butter in a skillet and fry the pieces of loaf , each side for 1-2 minutes . Done !!

You may omit that part , if you wish .

To serve with , I prepared a honey mustard wasabi sauce .

For that , Take 3 tbl spoon yellow mustard , 1 tbl spoon wasabi sauce , 1/4 th cup honey , 2 tbl spoon cider vinegar, 1 tea spoon melted warm butter + 2 tbl spoon oil ( preferably salad oil ) . Now combine everything together and stir with a fork until smooth and thin and your honey mustard wasabi sauce is ready . 🙂
