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.

The bobotie was a bit dry, but the flavors were good. I think I would add more milk or cream next time.

This bobotie was a bit too spicy for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less chili powder next time.
