Meat Pie for a dinner party — went down extremely well

I made Meat Pie for eight guests who had varying familiarity with the cuisine. Every single person asked for the recipe. The fresh and light profile was the main talking point — no one had quite experienced Vegemite used that way before.

Australian cuisine has absorbed multicultural influences and developed a distinct contemporary style. I explained the an outback pub meal context as I served it which helped people appreciate it fully. Tim Tam with tea was what I offered alongside and it worked perfectly. Excellent dinner party dish — impressive without being inaccessible.
