Ingredients
- Coriander: handful coriander leaves, finely chopped

- Garlic Clove: 2 garlic cloves, crushed
- Cherry Tomato: 12 cherry tomatoes, halved
- Spring Onion: 3 spring onions, trimmed and finely chopped
- Egg: 2 eggs, beaten
- Ground Cumin: 2 tsp ground cumin
- Breadcrumb: 100g white breadcrumbs
- Tabasco Sauce: 1/2 tsp Tabasco sauce, optional
- Chilli Sauce: 6-8 tbsp chilli sauce (we used Linghams), optional
- Minced Beef: 1kg lean minced beef
Directions
- Mix together beef, breadcrumbs, spring onions, garlic, eggs, cumin, Tabasco, coriander and some seasoning until combined. Be careful not to over-mix or the meatloaves will be tough.
- Divide the mixture into 8. Use your hands to shape each one into a small oval, like a mini meatloaf. Arrange 3 cherry tomatoes on top of each, then drizzle over the chilli sauce, if using. Cook or freeze in airtight plastic containers.
- To cook, heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Place the meatloaves on a lightly greased, shallow baking tray and bake for 25-30 mins until the meat is cooked through.
- To cook from frozen, heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Place the meatloaves on a baking tray and loosely cover with foil. Cook for 30 mins, then remove the foil increase the temperature to 220C/200C fan/gas 7 and cook for a further 25 mins.
