Pork Meatloaf with a Tomato Glaze

This meatloaf is delicious and lasts for a dinner and cold as a lunch with salad. The apricots add sweetness and the prosciutto saltiness. Being British I used that brand of ketchup and Worcestershire sauce. I also used lean pork so it wasn’t too greasy as the loaf tin is lined with the ham. Old school but sometimes they are the best and it’s fun to remake them.
