Description
This spicy lamb meatloaf is bold, juicy, and just messy enough to feel real. It’s the kind of dinner that smells amazing before it even hits the table.
Ingredients
- 1.65 pound , 750 g lamb mince
- 4 Tbsp. Olive oil or coconut oil
- 1 large onion, half finely chopped, half thinly sliced
- 1 cup fresh parsley, chopped and divided
- 2 tsp garlic, ginger, chili paste
- 2 fresh chilies, minced, optional
- 1/2 cup Provita crumbs, biscuits processed until fine
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup tomato sauce, divided
- 4 Tbsp. Jack Daniel’s BBQ sauce or any BBQ sauce
- 1 tsp Colman’s hot mustard
- 1/2 tsp coriander powder
- 1/2 tsp cumin powder
- 1 heaped tsp brown sugar
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Heat 4 Tbsp. olive oil or coconut oil in a pan over medium heat.
- Add half the chopped onion and cook for about 2 minutes until soft but not browned.
- Stir in 2 tsp garlic, ginger, chili paste, 2 minced chilies if using, and 1/2 cup chopped parsley.
- Cook another 1 to 2 minutes until fragrant.
- Set aside to cool properly so it doesn’t scramble the egg later.
- Preheat the oven to 170°C.
- In a large bowl, add 750 g lamb mince, 1/2 cup Provita crumbs, 1 large egg, 1/8 cup tomato sauce, 4 Tbsp. BBQ sauce, 1 tsp hot mustard, 1/2 tsp coriander powder, 1/2 tsp cumin powder, 1 heaped tsp brown sugar, plus salt and black pepper.
- Mix gently with your hands just until combined. Don’t overdo it, or the meatloaf turns dense.
- Add the cooled onion and parsley mixture and mix again lightly.
- Spray a loaf tin with olive oil cooking spray.
- Line with foil, leaving a bit of overhang, then spray the foil as well. This saves a lot of sticking and cleanup later
- Spoon the lamb mixture into the tin and press it in gently. Smooth the top.
- Spread the remaining 1/8 cup of tomato sauce evenly over the top.
- Scatter the sliced onion over the sauce and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup parsley. Season lightly with extra salt and black pepper.
- Bake uncovered for 1 hr until cooked through, and the top looks caramelized. If you want to be precise, the center should reach about 71°C.
- Rest the meatloaf in the tin for 20 minutes.
- This step matters, or it’ll crumble when sliced.
- Lift out using the foil, slice thickly, and serve.

I rarely cook with lamb and should expand my repertoire into trying it more often, This sounds delicious–I like spicy foods
Hope you do give it a try Pat. Coming from SA, we love lamb, although we do not get it here in Canada regularly.
