Easy to put together, prepared in advance, the meal relies on supermeat meat bargains.
Both high-end grocers M&S & Waitrose regularly offer 500g mince for a minimum £2. That's for 20% fat; 10% & 5% fat mince costs more. 20% fat mince isd fine for this recipe BUT the meatloaf will release a lot of fat so you must carefully pour most of it off once the meatloaf is cooked.
500g/17.6oz mince makes a meatloaf large enough for 4, with leftovers for sandwiches.
This recipe gives a very light, moist, soft and meaty loaf. You don't taste the mustard, onion, garlic & Worcestershire but it gives an incredible boost to the flavour. The addition of oatmeal, not breadcrumbs, adds fibre and makes the loaf even better for you.
It comes with its own rich and savoury sauce. Teamed with Frech stryle scalloped potatoes, it a mouthwatering, satisfying low-cost, lower-fat meal.
Want to make it go further still? Whole boiled eggs in the centre 'a la Nigella' provide pretty slices and extra portions.
Cost: £3.00'ish for meatloaf; around £5 for the meal (Mar 2023)
