this was a very good version of bobotie that i made for zwt4. the addition of chutney was very nice. i used slivered almonds and yellow raisins, amd my homemade recipe #73183 instead of a purchased blend. the topping was thin but that's probably because i used skim milk. this had great flavor.Reply
