South African Bobotie image

Adapted from the Afi Chef website. Posting for ZWT 4. This lacks the fruit that is common in a lot of Bobotie recipes and is the reason I was attracted to it in the first place. It has a nice light curry flavour and a hint of sweetness.

I've made this dish several times now and it's always a hit. It's a great way to use up leftover rice and it's so flavorful.

This was my first time making bobotie and it was a disaster. The flavors were all wrong and it was way too dry. I will not be making this again.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my bobotie turned out really dry. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't come out right.
