GYROS MEAT LOAF
2 1/2 pounds ground lean lamb
8 ounces tomato sauce
1 cup minced onion
1 cup minced green bell pepper
1/2 cup fine dry bread crumbs
2 large eggs
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint leaves
2 teaspoons pepper
2 teaspoons dry oregano leaves
2 teaspoons dry basil leaves
1 teaspoon dry rosemary
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a bowl, combine all ingredients together. Squeeze mixture with your hands to mix very well. Firmly press meat into a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
Bake, uncovered, in a 350 degree F oven until well browned on top, about 1 1/2 hours. Let stand until lukewarm.
Tilt pan and drain off juices: Invert loaf onto a plate and turn brown side up. Serve warm or cold. If made ahead, cover and chill up to 1 day. Add salt to taste.
TO MAKE SANDWICHES:
Wrap meat slices in pocket bread and add condiments. Greek-style meat loaf makes good sandwiches with mint leaves, onion, tomato, feta cheese, and cucumber.
Makes 8 to 10 servings
