A country like Australia that was mainly built by immigrants from everywhere in the world often does not have its own typical national cuisine. The Australian kitchen is a blend of British, Italian, Greek, Eastern European and Asian food to which Australians gave their own personal touch. Nevertheless, there are certain types of food that Australians strongly claim as typically ‘Australian’. Visitors to the country should try the following five that have become an intrinsic part of Australian life and heritage.
Australian Meat Pie
The meat pie is not just their favorite takeaway food snack; Australians consider their hand-sized meat pie as iconic to their cuisine. It contains largely minced meat and gravy and often onion, mushrooms, or cheese are added. According to statistics, the meat pie is the most popular snack to be eaten while watching a sports game, in particular Australian Rules Football.
Sausage Sizzle
Australians love to spend their free time barbecuing with friends or family at home or at one of the parks around the city that are equipped with BBQ stoves free to use by whoever comes first. It needs to be noted that Aussies take their ‘barbie’ very seriously. BBQ's are part of every important event of the year: Christmas, New Year, Australia Day, etc. Usually, everyone brings his or her own drinks and meat. The organizer often provides the snacks, salads and bread.
