2 tb Butter

This curry-flavored meatloaf recipe made the rounds
years ago, when kaffir lime leaves were unknown here.
Most people used bay leaves instead, or even lemon oro
range leaves from a backyard tree. However, it takes
the kaffir leaves to add the proper touch of delicate,
lemony perfume.

Soak bread in bowl with milk to cover until soft, then
squeeze dry. Saute onions and apple in skillet with
butter until tender and not browned. Add bread, lamb,
curry powder, sugar, vinegar, salt, pepper and
raisins. Add one beaten egg and almonds and mix
thoroughly.

Pack mixture lightly into 9x5" baking dish. Arrange
lime leaves on top. Bake at 350'F. 1 hour. Beat
remaining egg with milk. Stir in turmeric. Pour over
meatloaf and bake 15 minutes longer. Serve with rice
and chutney.
