Air fryer Mini Meatloaf 2737

Ingredients

  • 5 small eggs
  • 500g regular beef mince
  • 1 cup wholemeal fresh breadcrumbs
  • 1 small onion, grated
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 carrot, grated (150g)
  • ⅓ cup shredded parmesan, plus extra for garnish (45g)
  • ½ cup finely chopped parsley, plus extra for garnish
  • ⅓ cup smokey barbecue sauce
  • Mixed salad leaves and medley cherry tomatoes, to serve

Method

  1. Place four eggs into a medium saucepan. Cover with cold water and bring to the boil. Boil for 3 minutes (because eggs are small). Drain and cool in cold water until completely cold. Peel and set aside.
  2. Combine mince, breadcrumbs, onion, garlic, carrot, parmesan, parsley, 1 tablespoon sauce and remaining egg. Season with salt and pepper. Mix well with clean hands until thoroughly combined.
  3. Divide mixture evenly to create four large balls. Make an opening and stuff one boiled egg into the centre of each meatloaf. Reshape the balls into loaf shapes.
  4. Place loaves into an oiled air fryer basket. Cook at 180C for 10 minutes. Spoon barbecue sauce over the top of each loaf and cook at 180C for a further 8 minutes, or until the mince is cooked through.
  5. Serve with salad leaves and tomatoes.

Notes

  • Use small eggs for centre of meatloaves as large eggs can cause the loaf to split open.
  • Alternately, meatloaves can be cooked in an 200C (fan-forced) oven for 15 minutes. Glaze and return to the oven for a further 10 minutes.
