Method

  • step 1

    Heat the oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Put bread in processor and blitz to make crumbs, then tip into a bowl with the pork.

  • step 2

    Tip the onion, garlic and herbs into the food processor and process until finely chopped. Add to the bowl with the parmesan and egg. Finely chop 2 slices of the prosciutto and add to the mix with some salt and pepper. Mix well with a fork or your hands.

  • step 3

    Use the rest of the prosciutto to line a 1.5 litre loaf tin. Spoon in the meatloaf mix and press down well. Flip the overhanging prosciutto over the top, then put the loaf tin into a roasting tray.

  • step 4

    Pour hot water from the kettle into the roasting tray to come halfway up the loaf tin and bake for 1 hr until loaf shrinks from the sides of tin.

  • step 5

    Cool in the tin for 10 mins, then drain off any excess liquid and turn out onto a board. Cut into thick slices and serve warm or cold with salad.

this is basically the recipe I use, except I use smoked bacon, Italian mixed herbs, sometimes cut down on the breadcrumbs, don't add parmesan, and the extra ingredients are paprika and Worcester sauce, and a bay leaf on top

tip

I substituted Beyond Meat meat-free mince (2×300g) to make a vegetarian version and it turned out perfectly. I also added a teaspoon of liquid smoke in lieu of the prosciutto and just lined the loaf tin with baking parchment. Next time I plan add some chopped pistachios to give the texture a bit of…
