Vegan bobotie topping

Mally and I both love bobotie and he has tried a vegan topping once or twice. This is the latest. It is very tasty and definitely does the trick.

Ingredients

  • 1 block of tofu (about half the size of the Earth tofu packs, 8x8cm. We don't have a gramme scale)
  • 3-5ml smooth mustard
  • 5ml vegan "chicken" stock powder (available at Fresh Earth)
  • 2.5ml turmeric
  • 2.5ml salt
  • 1 slice of bread
  • 15ml sunflower oil
  • 125ml soy milk (we used So Fresh soy milk powder. Don't use anything with a pronounced vanilla taste)

Method

Blend it all together, adding the soy milk last. Makes a fair bit of topping – should be enough for two oven dishes. Pour on top of the vegan bobotie "mince" of your choice, whether lentils, soy mince or whatever, add some bay leaves and sprinkle some paprika over, and cook like you would normally cook bobotie (I'm guessing this calls for a bobotie recipe at some point).

Pics will follow once I can get them off the camera.
