As
you know, I keep struggling away with producing meatloaf. This time I made
one using half turkey mince (ground turkey) and half pork mince. I have never cooked turkey before – amazing I
know! And certainly have never used
turkey mince. But there it was in the
supermarket and it was even on special!
I
mixed up the mince with some breadcrumbs, egg, salt, pepper, a squirt of tomato
sauce (ketchup), some grated cheese and a sprinkle of tarragon. I tried to mix it while not over working
it. I left it in the loaf tin to chill
in the fridge.
Then
turned it out onto the baking dish and topped it with a little more grated
cheese and knobs of butter.
Baked
at a moderate temperature for 45 minutes.
It was a good experiment – lighter than the meatloaves I have made with
ground beef and the hint of tarragon was good with it.
Sounds good. I cook with ground turkey quite a bit. I add cumin, chili powder and garlic powder and fry up little burgers. I serve them with avocado and salsa.
ReplyDeleteI only cooked meatloaves in my handphone game - Tiny Chef, haha! Got to give it a try one day, worth the effort.
ReplyDeleteLove the twists you tried on this meatloaf. I would have never thought of trying the ground pork with ground turkey. Sounds like it was a success!
