Bobotie is considered the national dish of South Africa, and its history dates back to the 17th century when Dutch settlers introduced local ingredients and spices into the cuisine.
It is best to serve bobotie warm, with yellow rice and banana sambal. Use colorful plates to highlight the exotic character of the dish. You can garnish with fresh herbs, such as cilantro.
Leftover bobotie is best stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for a maximum of 2 months. When reheating, it's best to use the oven to maintain the crispiness of the topping.
