The French Lamb Loaf With Mustard is a savory twist on a classic meat loaf dish. The dish is made with ground lamb, which is seasoned with garlic, capers, and fresh herbs, and then baked inside a sourdough bread loaf. The addition of Dijon mustard adds a tangy and pungent flavor to the dish that perfectly complements the richness of the lamb. This dish is perfect for serving at a dinner party or for a special occasion.

Instructions

1.Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F and prepare a baking dish with cooking spray.
2.Cut the top off of the sourdough bread and reserve it for later.
3.Hollow out the inside of the bread, leaving about 1/2 inch of bread around the edges and the bottom.
4.In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat and add the onion and garlic. Cook until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant.
5.Add the ground lamb, salt, and pepper to the pan, and cook until browned, breaking up any large chunks with a wooden spoon.
6.Add the capers, parsley, thyme, Dijon mustard, breadcrumbs, and beaten egg. Mix until well combined.
7.Spoon the lamb mixture into the hollowed-out bread, pressing down gently to fill any gaps.
8.Replace the top of the bread and wrap the bread loaf tightly with foil.
9.Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
10.Remove the foil and bake for another 10-15 minutes, until the bread is crispy and the lamb is cooked through.
11.Slice and serve with additional Dijon mustard on the side.
