Leftover mixture: Beef & baked bean rissoles

Preheat the oven to 170°C.
2
Line a deep sided 2 litre terrine tin (approx.. 27 x 11 x 11cm) with baking parchment, making sure there's plenty overlapping.
3
Line the base and sides with the bacon, also letting it hang over the sides.
4
Mix everything except the tomatoes together and season with 2 teaspoons fine salt and some pepper. This easiest done with clean hands.
5
Place half the mixture into the tin and press flat.

Pour the tomatoes over to top of the meatloaf, then fold the bacon over the top of the tomatoes.
7
Fold the overhanging parchment over then seal tightly with tin foil.

Sit the terrine tin in a roasting dish (the juices will bubble out a little) and bake in the centre of the oven for an hour.
