For Rituparna
Chopped yellow onions ( 1 large onion)
Minced garlic, ginger
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt to taste
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon fresh thyme/rosemary leaves/Italian seasoning (1/2 teaspoon dried)
1 1/2 teaspoons tomato paste
2 pounds ground turkey
1 1/2 cups Italian bread crumbs
2 large eggs, beaten
3/4 cup ketchup
You can add your other favorite dry spices- I use garam masala and nutmeg powder too. You can use ghee (clarified butter) for a richer taste.
Directions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
Combine the ingredients in a large bowl. Mix well and shape into a rectangular loaf . Spread the ketchup evenly on top. Bake for 1- 1 1/2 hours until the meatloaf is cooked through. Serve hot, at room temperature, or cold in a sandwich.
For the sauce/glaze: You can use canned/fresh tomatoes and seasonings of your choice
