In honor of Australia Day this past January 26th, we’ve put together a ripper list of Aussie dishes for your Down Under inspiration.
From roadside convenience stores to posh Sydney brunch spots, a sausage roll is an Aussie classic. It's savory lamb sausage rolled up in puff pastry. Great on the go or for sharing!
Personal size Dublin beef pies
In Australia, pies are for meat, not fruit! These beauties are perfect for take-and-bake production. A little larger and you've got a take home dinner option, smaller and it's a bar bite or shareable. With a little artistry with the puff pastry, you can make a lasting impression, even when you're not there to serve.
Order a burger with the lot Down Under and this is the build - pineapple, pickled beets, bacon, and a fried egg. And of course, the patty is pasture-raised Aussie lamb!!
Lamb chops off the grill is about as Aussie as it gets. And there's a strong current of Lebanese and middle eastern cuisine down under. This dish from Suzanne Goin's A.O.C. in LA would be right at home in Sydney or Melbourne.
Australia is a land of meat, and we love our big cuts of meat. For pure showmanship, it's hard to top a tomahawk! Just look at this happy bloke with a grassfed tomahawk coming off of the mimbrasa grill!
