Filling
Heat the oil in a large heavy-based saucepan, over a medium heat. Add the onion and sauté for 2 minutes until softened. Add the mince and fry for 3 minutes.
Stir in the curry powder, turmeric, Garam masala, cumin, garlic and ginger and fry for another 5 minutes.
Add the stevia and tomatoes and fry for a further 10 minutes until the meat is cooked. Stir in the almonds, and season to taste.
Pancakes
Whisk all of the ingredients together and add a pinch of salt. Lightly spray a small pancake pan with non-stick cooking spray and add a ladleful of the pancake mixture. Cook for 20 – 30 seconds until the top looks dry. Gently flip it over and fry for another 10 – 15 seconds. Repeat with the rest of mixture until you have a stack of pancakes.
Sauce
To make the sauce, blend the yoghurt and coriander together using a hand blender, until smooth.
To serve, add a few tablespoons of the bobotie filling to each pancake, roll and serve with the sauce on the side.
Notes
TIP: Add additional flavour to the pancakes by adding finely chopped herbs such as coriander, parsley or chives to the mixture.
