    • 1 500g kangaroo mince
    • 1 brown onion
    • 2 garlic cloves
    • 1 75g broccoli stem or broccoli florets
    • 1 75g carrot
    • 3/4 cups frozen peas

    1. Finely dice the onion and garlic. Dice the carrot and broccoli into small equal sized pieces

    3. Preheat a large pan over a medium - high heat and add in the cooking oil/fat

    4. Once hot add the onions and garlic and saute until soft

    5. Next add in the carrots and broccoli cooking for 1 minute

    6. Add the kangaroo mince and cook until completely coloured

    7. Pour in the peas, diced tomatoes, tamari and honey and bring up to a simmer - reduce to a gentle simmer over a low heat

    8. Preheat the oven to 170 degrees ready to bake

    9. While waiting for the mince to reduce, peel and wash the potatoes. Chop them into equal sized pieces and steam until soft

    10. Once soft, mash the potatoes while hot into a bowl with the egg yolk, parmesan cheese and butter. Salt to taste if appropriate

    11. Remove two tablesoons of liquid from the mince mixture and mix that into a cup with the tapioca starch until all lumps are mixed out. Pour into the mince mixture to help thicken

    12. Season the mince with salt and pepper and once it has reduced, spoon it into an oven proof dish and top with the potato mash

    13. Bake until slightly crispy on top

    Kangaroo is a really sustainable meat if you're here in Australia so we want to showcase it more and utilise it more!
