Meatloaf

I used to make meatloaf often but not recently. I was surprised that I didn't have a recipe for it. Sort of winged it here but it ended up nice: tasty and moist. Really full of onions. Crispy outside. On the downside, it was cracked on the top and sort of fell apart when served hot - but not sure if that's really a problem. Might be the sacrifice to make for it to be so moist. Or maybe add some more bread crumbs/oats? I served it with some leftover tomato sauce, mash and creamed spinach and onion. Yum. 500g beef (organic, 20 per cent fat) 1 small onion, diced 2 cloves garlic, diced 1 egg, beaten 1/2 c plain yogurt 1/2 cup quick porridge oats (or bread crumbs) 1 tsp salt fresh ground black pepper 1 tsp basil 1/2 tsp oregano 1/2 tsp thyme 2 Tbsp chicken stock Mix all ingredients together with hands, until just combined. Put in baking dish and shape into loaf. Bake at 375F/170C fan for 1 hour.
