• Place the apple slices in the base of a greased, ovenproof dish. Sprinkle with the sugar. If using sausages, slit the sausage skins to remove the sausage meat and dispose of the skins. Mix the chopped onion with the sausage meat or skinned sausages and spread the sausage mixture over the apples.

• Preheat the oven. Cut off one end of the loaf. Pull out all the inside, keeping the empty loaf and cut-off end on one side, and whizz it into breadcrumbs in a liquidiser or a food processor.

• Chop the leeks finely. Put in a large bowl and mix with the minced beef, tomato puree, grated cheese, chopped garlic and ground coriander. season generously with salt and black pepper and mix in the crisp breadcrumbs and, lastly, the beaten egg.
• Spoon the mxture into the empty loaf crust, pressing down slighly but filling right to the brim. Replace the end of the loaf and secure by sticking a skewer through. Smear the loaf all over, especially on top with about 15 g butter, then wrap up completely in foil.
