| 1. Rinse lentils until water runs clear. | 2. Cover lentils with water and pre-cook for 30min (you may need to top the water up from time to time). | 3. Drain lentils. | 4. Preheat oven to 150C. | 5. Saute onion and tomato. | 6. Add curry, tumeric, salt and pepper. | 7. Cook for 1-2 minutes. | 8. Add raisins, almonds, chutney, onion and tomato to lentils. | 9. Mix and place in baking dish. | 10. Shake up topping ingredients and pour over lentils. | 11. Place in oven and bake for 1-1/2 hours (egg topping should have risen all the way to the middle) | 12. Please note:. | 13. 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. | 14. Also, adding a bit more diced onion will add more texture to the lentils. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
