New and improved (tm) bobotie topping

Because we've been utterly useless at updating this blog, and also because finding the perfect vegan bobotie topping is a major life goal for us, voila :)

Ingredients:
1/2 - 1 block tofu (depending on how thick you want your topping)
1 small potato, peeled and grated
1 level tsp turmeric
1 heaped tsp nutritional yeast
dash of soy sauce
salt and pepper to taste

Method:
Drain the tofu as well as possible.
Peel and grate the potato, squeeze the liquid out and sautee lightly.
Mash the tofu.
Mix all the ingredients together and, well, spread it over the bobotie. Put in the oven for 30-40 minutes at 180deg C and enjoy :)
