While meatloaf is in the oven, drain kumara. In a bowl combine mashed kumara with milk, butter, Parmesan and second parsley measure and whip until creamy.

Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Remove meatloaf from oven, but leave oven on for the next stage.

Dot kumara on meatloaf or use a piping bag to create a swirl.

Top each swirl with a cherry tomato half and pop back into oven for another 10 minutes.
