Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds (680 g) ground beef
- 3 tablespoons (45 ml) olive oil
- 2 medium zucchini, chopped
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 or 3 cloves garlic, crushed
- 2 tablespoons (7.6 g) snipped fresh parsley
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup (75 g) grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
Method
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C, or gas mark 4)
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet and saute the zucchini, onion, and garlic in it for 7 to 8 minutes
- Let the vegetables cool a bit and then put them in a big bowl with the beef, parsley, egg, cheese, salt, and pepper
- Using clean hands, mix the ingredients thoroughly
- Take the rather soft meat mixture and put it in a big loaf pan, if you like, or form the loaf right on a broiler rack so the grease will drip off
- Keep in mind that if you do it this way, your loaf wont stand very high-it’ll be about 2 inches (5 cm) thick
- Bake for 75 to 90 minutes or until the juices run clear but the loaf is not dried out
