Bobotie with a twist

This recipe has been adapted to a higher fibre, lower fat version from my Aunt Nola, who grew in Krugar and has some fantastic knowledge of cooking, feeding her two boys the best food in South Africa. This high protein dish is a fantastic recovery fuel, bursting with flavour and taste.
I also used the same recipe without beef (but doubled the lentils) for a friend of mine who is vegan. This went down really well.
