    I agree w/Chef601730...the fruit chutney definitely makes the recipe. The use of more tumeric and bay leaves is also necessary. I love the taste of raisins added. I'm actually not big on raisins but when added to the bobotie they melt in your mouth. I love the smell of this dish baking in the kitchen. Spice this one up a bit and add the necessary ingredients and you will see how much different it will taste.

    South African Bobotie, 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 , I agree w/Chef601730 the fruit chutney definitely makes the recipe The use of more tumeric and bay leaves is also necessary I love the taste of raisins added I’m actually not big on raisins but when added to the bobotie they melt in your mouth I love the smell of this dish baking in the kitchen Spice this one up a bit and add the necessary ingredients and you will see how much different it will taste , I didn’t like this bobotie recipe at all I’ve battled to get chutney since coming to the US from S Africa, so I liked the idea of a bobotie that omitted it Unfortunately, though, it’s the chutney that makes it great Also, the milk and egg mixture on top needs to have turmeric in it too, AND you’re meant to settle bay leaves on top of it in that mixture
