  • 1 cup dry soy protein meat (sub with mashed chickpeas or shredded tofu)
  • 1 cup brown lentils
  •  1 medium red onion 
  • 1-2 tbsp olive oil 
  • 1 tsp turmeric 
  • 1 tsp curry powder 
  • 1/2 tsp mustard seeds

Method

  1. First off, cook the lentils and hydrate the soy protein by adding some water until they puff up.
  2. Drain the protein’s water and then set it aside. 
  3. Add the oil to a pan and then add in the onion, spices, and let it simmer, saute until fragrant. 
  4. Once fragrant, add in the proteins and the chutney, cook for 5-8 minutes on low-medium heat. 
  5. Now, lay out the bread, smear the inside with vegan butter, then smear on the tomato chilli jam or chutney/jam of choice and layer on the bobotie filling. 
  6. Add the second layer of the bread. Once the braai or you’re ready to toast the jaffels, add the jaffle to the jaffle maker, slice off the excess bread, and toast the jaffle until nice and brown, and enjoy!
