Preheat your oven to 200C (400F). Combine beef, almond meal and a few pinches of salt in a bowl Mix well and form into a loaf.

Place tomato and butter in a baking dish and top with your loaf.

Bake uncovered for 30 minutes.

Spoon sauce over the top of the loaf and scatter over the cheese. Bake for another 20 minutes or until cheese is melted and the polpettone is cooked through. I like it a little pink.

Eat now or allow to cool before storing in the fridge or freezer.
