Bobotie (Lamb Meatloaf) Recipe

Bobotie (Lamb Meatloaf) Ingredients:

2 slice White bread
Milk
2 Onions, thinly sliced
1 Apple, peeled and diced
2 tbsp Butter
1 lb Ground lamb
2 tbsp Sugar
2 tbsp Cider vinegar
1/4 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Black pepper

6 Kaffir lime leaves
1 cup Milk
1 tsp Turmeric

Bobotie (Lamb Meatloaf) Preparation:

This curry-flavored meatloaf recipe made the rounds years ago, when
kaffir lime leaves were unknown here. Most people used bay leaves
instead, or even lemon oro range leaves from a backyard tree.
However, it takes the kaffir leaves to add the proper touch of
delicate, lemony perfume.

Soak bread in bowl with milk to cover until soft, then squeeze dry.
Saute onions and apple in skillet with butter until tender and not
browned. Add bread, lamb, curry powder, sugar, vinegar, salt, pepper
and raisins. Add one beaten egg and almonds and mix thoroughly.

Pack mixture lightly into 9x5" baking dish. Arrange lime leaves on
top. Bake at 350'F. 1 hour. Beat remaining egg with milk. Stir in
turmeric. Pour over meatloaf and bake 15 minutes longer. Serve with
rice and chutney.

"Cuisine is both an art and a science: it is an art when it strives to bring about the realization of the true and the beautiful, called le bon (the good) in the order of culinary ideas. As a science, it respects chemistry, physics and natural history. Its axioms are called aphorisms, its theorems recipes, and its philosophy gastronomy."

Ginette Olivesi-Lorenzias

"Enchant, stay beautiful and graceful, but do this, eat well. Bring the same consideration to the preparation of your food as you devote to your appearance. Let your dinner be a poem, like your dress."

Charles Pierre Monselet
