Bobotie

Bobotie
  • 2 onions, thickly sliced
  • 3 cups water, or as needed
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 slice white bread
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 pounds lean ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon curry powder
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons chutney
  • 6 almonds
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • 4 bay leaves


  1. Heat water in a saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil and add the onion slices. Reduce heat and simmer until the onions appear translucent, 3 to five minutes. Remove the onions and finely chop them.
  2. Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion; cook and stir until the onion has browned slightly.
  3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 7x11-inch baking dish.
  4. Soak the slice of bread in the milk and gently squeeze out the milk; set the milk aside. Crumb the bread into a large mixing bowl. Mix bread together with ground beef, curry powder, 1 egg, sugar, salt, black pepper, turmeric, vinegar, chutney, almonds and raisins.
  5. Place the mixture the prepared baking dish. Insert the bay leaves into the meat. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour.
  6. Beat the remaining egg with 3 tablespoons of the drained milk. Pour over the meat and bake for another 30 minutes.
