Classic Australian Recipes

Recipes that originated in Australia, were invented by Aussies or that Australians just like to call their own (even if we've taken them from somewhere else!)

From my home kitchen in Australia's lovely Hunter Valley, I dish out a growing collection of Classic Australian Recipes. From Damper to Rissoles, Pavlova, Fairy Bread, Weetbix Slice, Mars Bar Slice and Tim Tam Balls, you're sure to find all your Aussie faves and discover a few new ones.
