This is a really quick easy recipe to throw together that is full of flavour. Be careful with the oyster sauce though I have listed amounts, but if you buy quite a strong brand I would recommend using less, it is a bit like soy sauce with the saltiness of it. The brand I use is not that salty, but I have bought other brands that are so salty they have completely destroyed my meal with the overpowered salty flavour.
Ingredients
700g Pork mince
80-100ml Oyster sauce, depending on strength and saltiness of the brand you buy
3 Cloves garlic, crushed
1 Egg
1 Thai red chilli, chopped finely
1/2 Cup breadcrumbs
100ml Coconut milk
1/3 Cup Thai basil, finely chopped
250g Gai lan, cut into 10cm lengths
250g Baby bok choy
Method
1. Pre-heat oven to 200c Fan-forced
2. Combine mince, 50ml oyster sauce, garlic, egg, chilli, breadcrumbs, coconut milk and basil in a large bowl. Tear off four sheets of foil and shape pork mix into 4 rectangular meatloaves, wrap the foil around each and place in a baking dish, cook meatloaves 20 Min’s
3. Remove foil brush meatloaves with another tablespoon of sauce shared between each. Cook for a further 10-15 Min’s until cooked through.
4. Meanwhile boil, steam or microwave gai lan and bok choy until tender, combine with remaining sauce in a large bowl. Serve greens topped with sliced meatloaves.
