Lentil bobotie

4. Add the breadcrumbs, chutney and tomato puree, deglaze with vegetable stock and bring to the boil.

5. Close the lid and pressure cook on pressure setting 2 for 9 minutes.

6. At the end of the cooking time, remove the DUROMATIC from the heat and leave to cool until the pan is depressurised and the pressure indicator remains at the bottom. Open the lid and season the lentils with salt.

crust

1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees top/bottom heat.

2. Puree the silken tofu with all the other ingredients up to and including the pepper in a blender jug until very smooth (works best in a blender jug), season to taste.

3. Pour the lentil mixture into a greased baking tin (20x20cm) and smooth out. Carefully pour the silken tofu glaze over the lentils and spread evenly. Sprinkle with almonds and bay leaves. Bake for 25-30 minutes in the lower half of the oven until the crust is slightly coloured.

Golden rice

1. Pour the water into the DUROMATIC, add the rice, salt and turmeric. Close the lid and pressure cook at 1 ring for 7 minutes. At the end of the cooking time, remove to the side and leave to cool. Optionally, add 1 tbsp of oil or butter/margarine to the rice and fluff up with a fork.
