Preparation method
Prep: 20 minutes | Cook: 1 hour 15 minutes1.
To make the meatloaf: combine the mince, sausage, breadcrumbs, onions, salt & pepper, garlic, parsley, curry and egg in a large bowl. Mix it all up well. Mix milk and water and add to the meat mixture a bit at a time until it is smooth but firm. Shape into a loaf shape and put into a greased baking tin.
2.
Bake for 30min at 190 degrees. While the meatloaf is cooking, make up the sauce.
3.
To make the sauce; saute the onions in margarine or butter until golden. Add the tomato sauce, wine (or beef stock), Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, water, vinegar, coffee and lemon juice. Bring slowly to the boil, lower heat and simmer for 10 or so minutes.
4.
After the meatloaf has cooked for 30min or so, pour half the sauce over the meatloaf, return it to the oven and bake for another 45min, basting often with remaining sauce.
5.
Serve the loaf hot with tomato sauce, or the remaining sauce which is also great (as above) for kids lunchboxes cold, or in sandwiches.

I did enjoy this recipe, however there are a few things that I would change.
Firstly I would make it with beef mince only. The sausage meat makes it taste a little cheap.
The sauce was delicious, very flavoursome, but I woud not recommend putting instant coffee in it. You can smell and taste the coffee in the sauce, and that is not very appealing.
An enjoyable meal overall.

Absolutely gorgeous and easy meatloaf. The sauce is what makes it sooo devine. I added 1/2 cup beef stock to make the sauce go further - I didn't find it overpowering with the worcestershire sauce! YUMMO

The recipe states "ready in 50 minutes" this is incorrect. The recipe also states cook for 30 minutes, baste with sauce, then bake for a further 45 minutes. However, this recipe is sensational and delicious. I baked in a Loaf Pan lined in baking paper, so much easier and cleaner. Halfway through I also placed a baking tray on the shelf below with water which made the end result a lot more moist than it would have turned out originally. Excellent with mashed potato and steamed greens :-)
