Cooking Thursday - Mince Beef Roll

Good morning everyone :)  Come on in and have some coffee while I share a yummy recipe, hope you brought yours too :)

Minced Beef Roll

1 and half pounds of beef mince (ground beef)
2 teaspoons of salt
1 onion, coarsely grated
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1/2 cup of breadcrumbs
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
2 tablespoons parsley
diced tomato and onion
mozzarella cheese


Mix all ingredients well, except tomato and onion and mozzarella. Press beef mixture out on a sheet of greaseproof paper into a rectangle measuring 30 x 20 cm (about 12 by 6 inches).

Spread with some diced tomato and onion and sprinkle with shredded mozzarella cheese. With the help of the paper, roll up from the long edge, like a swiss roll. Place, seam side down, on an oiled swiss roll tin a little larger than the meat roll.

Bake at 350 for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and spread some more diced tomato and onion over the top, and then arrange thin slices of mozzarella, side by side, to cover the top completely. Return to oven and bake for 30 minutes more.

Serve in thick slices.

Serves 6.
