Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • ½ teaspoon vegetable oil

  • 2 slices dry bread, diced

  • ½ teaspoon vegetable oil, or as needed

  • ¼ cup milk

  • 1 pound ground lamb

  • 1 egg

  • 4 cloves minced garlic

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme

  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest

  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander

  • 1 teaspoon dried basil

  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed

  • ¾ teaspoon salt

  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • ¼ cup tomato sauce

  • 5 leaves fresh mint, finely chopped

  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with oil.

  2. Place bread and milk in a small bowl. Press bread with a fork to soak up the milk.

  3. Combine lamb, egg, garlic, thyme, Worcestershire sauce, lemon zest, coriander, basil, rosemary, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Add soaked bread; discard the leftover milk. Mix with hands until well combined. Transfer meatloaf to the prepared pan.

  4. Combine tomato sauce and mint; spread evenly over the meatloaf. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Remove and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
