NOTES : In the seventeenth century, when Holland maintained a virtual
monopoly on the spice trade, the Dutch East India Company decided to

establish a permanent refreshment station at Capetown for ships

sailing from the Netherlands to the Indian Ocean on the sea route

blazed by Vasco da Gama. The Dutch settlement of South Africa

quicked followed, and the flavor of curry made with Indian spices

attracted many South African fans. Today bobotie is as characteristic

of the food of South Africa as the tortilla is of Mexico.
