Bobotie
Serves 4
Ingredients:
1 tbsp sunflower oil
450g/1lb minced (ground) beef
1 onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, crushed
4 tsp medium-hot curry powder
1 tbsp apricot jam (jelly)
1 tbsp tomato paste
2 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 carrot, grated
1 small banana, peeled and diced
3 tbsp raisins
50g/2oz/⅓ cup red lentils
4 bay leaves
2 medium eggs
200ml/7fl oz/¾ cup milk
salt and ground black pepper
Method:
1 Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas 4.
2 Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat, and fry the beef and onion for 5 minutes, stirring until the beef is browned and the onion is just tender.
3 Stir in the garlic, curry powder, jam, tomato paste, vinegar, carrot, banana, raisins and lentils. Season and press into a large rectangular ovenproof dish and smooth the top.
4 Place the bay leaves on top. Beat the eggs and milk together with a little salt and pepper and pour over the bay leaves.
5 Bake in the oven for 40–45 minutes until the topping is set and golden and the meat is cooked. Check after 30 minutes and loosely cover the top with foil if it’s browning too quickly.
6 Set aside to cool for 15 minutes, then serve cut into slices.
