Introduction
Australia is a land of many wonders, and one of the greatest is its cuisine. From the humble meat pie to an entire platter of seafood, there’s something for every taste. In this article, we’ll explore some iconic dishes from this mysterious continent.
Lobster
Lobster is a type of seafood, and it’s also a delicacy. It’s expensive, but if you’re willing to pay for it then go ahead!
Lobsters are crustaceans; they have ten legs and two large claws at the front end of their bodies. They live in the ocean and come out onto land only when it rains heavily or there are storms (or both).
Kangaroo
Kangaroo is a lean red meat. It’s high in protein and low in fat, making it a healthy choice for those looking to shed some pounds. Kangaroo also contains iron and zinc, which are key nutrients for strong bones and blood production.
Kangaroo meat contains B vitamins such as thiamin (B1) and riboflavin (B2). These vitamins help convert carbohydrates into energy, maintain healthy skin and eyesight, keep your nervous system functioning properly so that you can think clearly, support cell growth & development throughout the body including muscle tissue growth/repair after exercise sessions
Barramundi
Barramundi is a type of fish that can be found in Australia. It’s also a popular dish, with white flesh and a mild flavour. The barramundi is native to Northern Australia, but has been farmed commercially since the 1980s. If you’re looking for an interesting new food experience while visiting Australia, this might be just what you’re after!
Emu
Emu is a flightless bird that is native to Australia. The emu’s meat is lean and low in fat, with less than 3 grams of fat per serving (about 1/3 of an ounce). It’s also a source of iron, phosphorus, selenium and zinc.
The protein content of emu meat makes it an excellent choice for those who need more protein in their diet but don’t want to eat red meat or poultry products because they are high in cholesterol or saturated fats. Emu has more omega-3 fatty acids than any other type of poultry product on the market today!
Kangaroo Jerky
Kangaroo jerky is a popular Australian food that you can find in most grocery stores. It’s made from dried kangaroo meat and comes in a variety of flavors, including teriyaki, chili lime, and peppered. Kangaroo jerky can be eaten as is or crumbled over soup or salad for added flavor.
Sausage Rolls
Sausage rolls are a popular snack in Australia and New Zealand. A sausage roll is a meat pie that contains a sausage meat filling. The pastry used to make the casing for this savory treat can be puff pastry, shortcrust pastry or flaky pastry. In addition to containing sausage meat, some versions of this dish also include cheese or spinach as additional ingredients.
Sausage rolls are typically eaten as a snack but they can also be served as part of a main meal if desired (e.g., during lunch). Some people prefer their sausage rolls without any condiments such as ketchup or mustard on top because they want to enjoy all of their favorite flavors at once without being distracted by anything else!
Seafood Platter
Seafood platter
A seafood platter is a popular dish in Australia. It usually consists of a variety of seafood, such as prawns, oysters and crab meat. This can be served with chips (French fries), salad and a drink. It is served at restaurants or takeaways as either an entree (starter) or main meal/snack depending on your preference. Seafood platters are also popular for outdoor dining on the beach or by the pool!
Meat Pie with Tomato Sauce Topped with Cheese and Mushrooms
The meat pie is a popular Australian dish. It consists of a pastry filled with minced or diced meat and vegetables, often served with gravy.
The pastry can be made from wheat flour, shortcrust pastry or puff pastry and the filling may contain beef (often finely chopped), mutton (also known as lamb), pork or chicken; these are then combined with onion-flavored fat such as butter or lard along with spices such as pepper and salt. Sometimes they are served without any topping but some people like to add tomato sauce on top of their pies before serving them which makes them even tastier!
Australia has some good food.
The food of Australia is a fusion of European, Asian, and Indigenous Australian ingredients. It’s healthy, nutritious, and delicious. And it’s fresh and locally sourced!
The best part about Aussie cuisine? You don’t have to travel all the way down under to enjoy it–just head down your local supermarket or farmers market for some homegrown goodness that will leave you feeling right at home no matter where in the world you find yourself eating at this very moment!
