Kategori Mediterranean
serveringsstørrelse 4 people

Ingredienser
  

  • 1 pound ground lamb
  • 1/2 cup plain breadcrumbs
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 cucumber, peeled and grated
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground lamb, breadcrumbs, egg, feta cheese, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix with your hands until the ingredients are evenly distributed.
  • Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and press each into a muffin cup to form the mini meatloaves.
  • Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F.
  • While the meatloaves bake, prepare the tzatziki. Place the grated cucumber in a clean towel and squeeze out excess moisture. In a medium bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, drained cucumber, lemon juice, and fresh dill. Add a pinch of salt if needed.
  • Remove the meatloaves from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes. Serve each with a generous spoonful of tzatziki on top.

Squeeze the cucumber well so the tzatziki stays thick instead of watery. Use full-fat Greek yogurt for the best texture. Leftovers keep in the fridge for up to three days and reheat well in the microwave.
