BEEF LAYER LOAF RECIPE

When I make the Beef Layer Loaf I usually make two and freeze one for another day. My husband loves his Beef Layer Loaf with mashed potatoes and peas, but he also likes taking the Beef Layer Loaf on his sandwiches the next day to work. It is a loaf that is easy to make and very economical.

Beef Layer Loaf Ingredients

1 egg
rosemary
1 rasher bacon
2 spring onions
salt and pepper
1 1/2 lb beef steak
1 cup breadcrumbs
1 Tbs butter melted
1/4 cup breadcrumbs
2 Tbs onion chopped
1 cup peeled tomatoes diced

Beef Layer Loaf Method

Combine the minced steak, diced bacon, chopped onion, salt, pepper and rosemary to taste. Bind with a little beaten egg. Line a loaf tin with greased foil then sprinkle the inside with the 1/4 cup breadcrumbs. Press half the meat mixture into this tin. Then in a medium bowl mix the breadcrumbs, melted butter, diced tomatoes, chopped spring onions, season with salt and pepper. Spoon this mixture over the meat layer in the tin and then cover it with remainder of the meat mixture, then take some foil and cover the tin. Bake the Beef Layer Loaf at 350 degrees for 1 1/4 hours. Leave the Beef Layer Loaf in the tin for about 10 minutes before turning out. I sometimes put some cheese down the middle to melt when I have turned it out but that is up to you if you desire. Serve hot with vegetables or cold with salad.

Enjoy your freshly made Beef Layer Loaf!
