Mine was the Moroccan meatloaf I had mentioned earlier. It had ground ginger in the beef with breadcrumbs, ketchup, cumin and cinnamon. The sauce on top had ketchup, lemon juice, a touch of chiles and garlic. It was surprisingly good.
Mom's was always dry, despite a cross of bacon cooked on it, so it wasn't my favorite as a kid. But then again, meat was always cooked until dead done when I was growing up. They still eat it that way. When I cook for them, I take my portion out about 20 minutes before theirs.
