Kategori Mediterranean
serveringsstørrelse 4 people

Ingredienser
  

  • 1 lb ground lamb
  • 1/2 cup plain breadcrumbs
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 small onion, finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 2 tbsp fresh mint, chopped
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 4 oz feta cheese, cut into 4 cubes
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F and lightly grease a baking sheet with the olive oil.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the ground lamb, breadcrumbs, egg, onion, garlic, oregano, mint, salt, and pepper. Mix gently with your hands until the ingredients are evenly distributed.
  • Divide the mixture into four equal portions. Flatten each portion slightly, place one feta cube in the center, and shape the meat around the cheese to fully enclose it. Form into small oblong loaves.
  • Arrange the meatloaves on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 160°F.
  • Remove from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

merknader

Use a gentle hand when mixing so the meatloaves stay tender. Fresh mint brightens the flavor, but dried mint works in a pinch if that is what you have. Leftovers reheat well in a 350°F oven for 10 minutes to keep the centers creamy. Serve with a simple cucumber-yogurt sauce or roasted vegetables on the side.
