    Quoting Dale Shipp to Michael Loo <=-

    I have no idea what country or ethnic region this might have come
    from, but it looks (a) different and (b) might be good.
    Title: BABOTI
    2 t Curry powder
    2 lb Ground beef
    1 Handful raisins
    1 Egg

    It's South African and usually spelled babotie. It's considered a
    Cape Malay dish. Back in the Dutch Empire colonial days, the Dutch
    brought a lot of what are today Indonesians from the Dutch East
    Indies to South Africa as slaves. They mingled there with Indian
    slaves. The four key ingredients are ground beef mixed with dried
    fruit, spiced with curry powder,topped with a scrambled egg-milk
    mixture. Your recipe calls for apricot jam plus raisins rather than
    chopped, dried apricots and sounds quite good.


    Cheers

    Jim
