what a morning

hi , my Aussie landlord came to visit today and brought me some kangaroo mince round his brother brought over from Australia. So I've made an authentic Aussie pie with kangaroo mince onion mushroom And sweetcorn . I've also made a dozen sausage rolls 😄 😂 this is before cooking

I had kangaroo 🦘 in a roast once. It was under false pretence and I probably wouldn’t have tried it if I’d known beforehand. It tasted kind of similar to beef I thought!

How did they manage to get kangaroo mince from Australia into Greece?

in reply to madonbrew

I'm not allowed to disclose but I do know that it can be bought here anyway along with ostrich . But I guess in a ice pack in suitcase , because of covid security is not so tight as in most countries due to staff issues

in reply to madonbrew

I was even given how to make a proper pie , they put loads of tomato sauce in the pie before putting the lid on and cooking

Putting loads of tomato sauce in the pie kinda suggests that kangaroo meat isn't that tasty?!

in reply to CDPO16

I tried the meat before I added the tomato sauce and it's really nice it's an Aussie kinda gravy we put tomato sauce on the outside of pies they put it inside 😂😂😂 it actually works 😂😂

Well, I learn something everyday!

in reply to CDPO16

I was surprised myself because I have never heard of it but my landlord is Australian and my Greek friend at local cafe lived in Australia and he said yes they use it like the Brit's use gravy 😂😂😂
