CAPE MALAY MEATLOAF
An enduring culinary legacy of colonial South Africa, this meat loaf with its custardy topping, called bobotie in Afrikaans, combines the twin Cape Malay loves for dried fruits and Eastern spices. It is traditionally served with yellow rice sweetened with honey. This version is from the Institute of Culinary Arts just outside Stellenbosch, South Africa.

VEGETARIAN BOBOTIE
This is my own vegetarian adaptation of the traditional Cape Malay dish of my country. I have tried to approximate flavour and texture as closely as possible and have retained all the ingredients my mother used when making it - aside from the mince, of course :) This project has been very important to me as most of the vegetarian versions I have found online so far are rather inaccurate. Bobotie was one of my favourite dishes as a child and I wanted to preserve and share that memory as much as I could.

Steps:
- Rinse lentils until water runs clear.
- Cover lentils with water and pre-cook for 30min (you may need to top the water up from time to time).
- Drain lentils.
- Preheat oven to 150C.
- Saute onion and tomato.
- Add curry, tumeric, salt and pepper.
- Cook for 1-2 minutes.
- Add raisins, almonds, chutney, onion and tomato to lentils.
- Mix and place in baking dish.
- Shake up topping ingredients and pour over lentils.
- Place in oven and bake for 1-1/2 hours (egg topping should have risen all the way to the middle)
- Please note:.
- I spice my bobotie mildy and use a slightly sweet sultana chutney - one preference found in the Cape. Some people make theirs hotter and use Mrs. Ball's Original Chutney, which is very tasty and is less sweet. I recommend you experiment, but remember, the dish should be spicy as in flavoursome, not as in burn-your-mouth.
- Also, adding a bit more diced onion will add more texture to the lentils.

BOBOTIE - SOUTH AFRICAN CAPE MALAY CASSEROLE
This is a family recipe from my birth country. It is absolutely unusual and fabulous for potluck dinners as the meat mixture and rice should be served at room temperature to enhance flavours. The accompaniments complete the exotic presentation of the dish. Your guests will be begging for the recipe!
