Instructions

Run the onion in a food processor for about 15 seconds. Place the onion in the center of a kitchen towel and squeeze out the juice and return the onion pulp to the food processor. Discard the juice.
Add the meat, garlic, spices, salt and pepper to the onion, and process. Do so until it looks like a fine paste, about a minute. Place the mixture in a loaf pan and press evenly.
Bake at 325°F for about an hour and 20 minutes
Remove from the oven, drain the liquid, and place the loaf pan on a trivet or oven mitt. Cover the meat with aluminum foil for about 15 minutes.
Place meat on a cutting board and slice as thinly as possible
Add a few slices to a nonstick frying pan (very little or no oil) and heat gently until the meat browns a little.
Serve with tzatziki sauce, lettuce, tomatoes, and red onion slices.

Notes

Use the large batch panfake recipe for the sandwich bread but instead of the cinnamon/ vanilla add garlic powder, onion powder, ground mustard, salt & pepper about a tsp of each.
