An amazingly flavoursome dish. People who normally don't like the flavour of roo will like this one. The meat is wonderfully tender and the gravy rich. If roo isn't available use beef, which the CSIRO recipe originally used. A good full-bodied wine is required. Australian measurements used.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 onions, finely chopped
200 g field mushrooms, sliced
2 garlic cloves, crushed
800 g kangaroo fillets, diced in 2cm cubes
2 tablespoons flour
1 (400 g) can diced tomatoes
1 cup red wine
1 cup beef stock
1/2 red capsicum, seeded & sliced (pepper)
1 tablespoon chopped flat leaf parsley (italian)
1 tablespoon chopped oregano
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 170 deg C (340 deg F).
2. In a large, heavy-based frying pan heat 2 teaspoons of oil over high heat. Add onion, mushrooms and garlic and saute for 5 minutes, or until soft. Transfer to a large, ovenproof dish (with lid).
3. Add flour to a plastic bag & season lightly. Add the meat to the flour, seal bag and shake until all the meat is coated. Heat remaining oil in frypan and cook meat, in batches, until well browned. Transfer to dish with onion mixture.
4. To the frying pan add tomato, wine, stock and capsicum and gently bring to a boil. Scape up any bits of meat stuck to bottom of pan. Now add this to the casserole dish.
5. Gently combine mixture in casserole dish then cover and transfer to oven for between 1.5 hours (kangaroo) - 2 hours (beef). Remove lid and cook for a further 30 minutes, or until meat is tender.
6. To serve add herbs and seasoning to taste.
