This meatloaf is a bit of a change from the standard mince steak/sausage meat combination. It has a sweet curry flavour which makes it just that bit different and it’s good hot or cold.

CABBAGE ROLLS
This recipe comes from the CSR Brown Sugar packet. I’m not exactly sure of the date, but I’m surprised it is headed ‘Try this new recipe’ as Mum had been making Cabbage Rolls since we were kids.
ALL IN ONE CASSEROLE
This is a very hearty beef casserole great for these winter nights. I like the fact that everything is thrown in one dish and you can put it in the oven and forget it for a couple of hours. The recipe converts to 250g of blade steak, but you could put more in if you want to bulk it up a bit.
THREE MEATLOAF RECIPES
By the yellowing of this newspaper clipping Mum cut it out of the Herald Sun quite a long while ago, but meatloaves never go out of fashion. The article talks about how good cold a meatloaf is and how good it is for picnics and sandwiches, but hot meatloaf with roast potatoes and gravy is really very hard to beat. Great hot for dinner and great next day for sandwiches – as the article says, it’s very versatile.
CANNELONI
Over the years the Italian influence gradually crept into Mum’s cooking. She cut this Canneloni recipe out of the New Idea in 1994, I’m not sure she actually made it, but I’m sure she meant to one day. It certainly looks good.
ITALIAN MEATBALLS
This recipe is probably how we really think of meatballs, Italian style, served with pasta. I’m not sure Mum would have put the olives in as she and Dad didn’t like them, but I think they are the ingredient that makes the Italian difference.
GREEK MEATBALLS
I think this is one of the most versatile of the meatball recipes that Mum collected. You can make them as a savory to have with drinks or serve them as a main dish with either rice or pasta. The recipe even has instructions for freezing and reheating – what more you possibly want.
BEEF ‘N’ BEER
Neither Mum or Dad were beer drinkers, but there was usually a bottle in the fridge for visitors, sometimes it would sit there for a bit too long and not be fresh enough to serve. So this recipe was great for using up the odd ‘stale’ bottle. It makes a very hearty winter casserole.
STEAK PARCELS
Mum cut this recipe out of the Woman’s Day. I make something similar by just sprinkling some French Onion Soup and a dab of butter top of the steak. Either version tastes great.
BEEF, SWEET CHILLI AND VEGETABLE STIR-FRY
This is a very modern recipe to find in Mum’s collection. Firstly it’s a stir fry, something she never did and secondly it has sweet chilli in it. I do think the cauliflower and sweet corn would have appealed to her though.
