Soak the bread crumb with half of the milk and let it stand.
Soften the onion in butter, add the ground chicken, and saute.
Mix in the curry, turmeric, raisins, jam, vinegar, salt, and soaked bread.
Spread the filling evenly in a baking dish; a level top helps the milk topping bake evenly.
Whisk the eggs with the remaining milk and pour over the filling.
Bake the bobotie at 180?C until the top is set.
💡 Tip: Do not pour the egg milk too early; if the filling rests for 5 minutes, the top layer bakes evenly without curdling.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve chicken bobotie with yellow rice, chutney, and cucumber slices.
