Jamies Meat Loaf Food

MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180ºC/350ºF/gas 4.
• Trim each fennel bulb and chop into eight wedges, then place in a large roasting tray, drizzle with oil, season with sea salt and black pepper and roast for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, peel and dice the onions and carrots, place in a large pan with 1 tablespoon of oil on a medium-low heat and cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Pick the herb leaves, finely chop half of them and add to the veg pan, saving the rest for later.
• Leave the veg to cool completely, then tear in the mozzarella and add the breadcrumbs, minced meat, mustard, eggs, and a good pinch of sea salt and black pepper. Scrunch and mix well, then shape into a loaf.
• Make a space in the middle of the fennel tray and sit the meatloaf in the centre. Criss-cross the smoky bacon over the meatloaf, drizzle with a little oil, then cover the tray with tin foil.
• Roast for 30 minutes, then remove from the oven and discard the foil.
• Mix the chicken stock, jam and tomato purée together in a jug until smooth, then pour into the tray. Toss the reserved herbs with a little oil and scatter into the tray, then return to the oven for a final 45 minutes, or until cooked through.
• If the juices need thickening at this stage, simply put the tray on the hob to reduce for a few minutes, until they're the consistency of your liking, skimming away any fat from the surface, if needed.
• Serve the meatloaf, sweet fennel and juices with mash and seasonal greens.
