Don't be afraid to experiment. There are many different ways to make bobotie, so feel free to experiment with different ingredients and flavors. You might be surprised at what you create!
Make sure the bobotie is cooked through. The meat should be cooked through and the egg mixture should be set. You can check this by inserting a toothpick into the center of the bobotie. If it comes out clean, the bobotie is cooked through.
Let the bobotie rest before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the bobotie to firm up. You can let it rest for up to 30 minutes.
Serve the bobotie with your favorite sides. Some popular sides include yellow rice, mashed potatoes, and green beans.
