Instructions

  1. Roast the almonds in a pan until golden brown, remove and allow to cool.
  2. Soak the bread in lukewarm water. Peel and finely dice the onions and garlic.
  3. Squeeze out the bread well. Knead the minced meat, bread and tomato paste and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Heat oil in a pan. Sauté the onions and garlic in it, dust with curry powder and sweat for two minutes while stirring. Stir in the apricot jam. Add the minced meat and a bay leaf and stir in. Deglaze everything with 150 ml water, bring to the boil and cook over medium heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Wash the parsley, pat dry and finely chop the leaves.
  6. Mix the minced mixture, almonds and parsley, except for a tablespoon, and season with salt and pepper.
  7. Pour the mince mixture into an oval baking dish (approx. 40 x 25 cm).
  8. Whisk the eggs and milk together and season with salt and pepper. Pour the egg milk over the minced meat. Place two bay leaves on top.
  9. Bake the casserole in a preheated oven at 175 ° C top / bottom heat (150 ° C convection or gas level 2) for 25 minutes.
  10. For the spiced rice:
  11. In the meantime, bring 300 ml of salt water to the boil. Let the rice with turmeric and cinnamon soak over a low heat for 15 minutes. Wash, drain and stir the raisins. Remove the cinnamon stick and stir the butter into the rice.
  12. Take the casserole out of the oven and sprinkle with the remaining parsley.
  13. Peel and slice the bananas and drizzle with lemon juice.
  14. Arrange the bobotie, spiced rice and banana slices on plates. Chutney and desiccated coconut taste great with it.
  15. I got this recipe from a good friend who cooks in a restaurant on Long Street in Cape Town.
  16. Of course, the quantities of the spices are not set in stone. If you like it spicier, take chilli. The way I said it tastes the average European, I would say.
