Tasty Traditional Australian Food Recipes

By Brenda Stewart


There is no doubt, Australians are the first to say that they have some of the best food. However, one has to debate as to whether all of the food is in fact theirs. For example, the Pavlova may belong to the New Zealanders. With that being said, much this food that is made is incredibly tasty. Traditional Australian food recipes are worth looking into because there is a large variety.

There may be a lot that the average person has not heard about. The typical foods, such as the meat pies is known to be famous in these parts. It is made easily and anyone will enjoy the flavours. The meat is good in this part of the world, so it is naturally something that most people will enjoy. The Australians love their meat. There are not too many vegetarians here.

The lamington is not something that many Australians can refuse. After all, it is the national cake of the country. It is a basic sponge cake, but topped with chocolate icing and coconut. You won't pass a cafe without seeing one of these. Most people will have a cup of tea or coffee with their lamington. There are also other subtle variations that you will discover.

Wheat Bix is another favourite of the average Aussie and always has been. It doesn't matter how old you are, Aussies will boast that Wheat Bix is unique to them because it is smaller and sweeter and this sets it above the rest, making it quite average in the rest of the world. It is definitely a favourite to have for breakfast. But it can also make a great snack.

The damper has been around since the beginning of time, starting off as an inexpensive food for workers and people without money. It could be easily made, but now it has been turned into a bread which is made to be more milky. Back in the day, the bread was baked on the fire, but things have advanced since those days.

The prawn cocktail, which was so famous back in the 1970's, was actually created by the Australians. Few people realize this. These are basically prawns which have been shelled in a glass with a mayonnaise and tomato dressing. This took off by storm. Parts of Australia are very sophisticated. Sydney is probably well known for this and one can wine and dine here until the early hours of the morning.

When you think of pea and ham soup, you will usually think of British and their culinary skills. One doesn't usually think of an Australian chef inventing this comfort food. However, the adaption comes into play because of the meat that they use. This relates to sausage, such as frankfurter which are tasty and have been done properly beforehand.

Wheat-Bix may not seem like anything special since one can find this just about anywhere else. However, Australians boast their version is smaller and sweeter. While most people in other countries don't see this as to be anything unique, Australians are quite passionate about their Wheat-Bix in the mornings.
