Aww thanks for that Ali and Shef
Shef there are a few things we can't get here
A decent pumpkin swear nothing comes close.....the only time i can get one is around halloween and it's a aussie blue... nestl'e reduced cream... disiccated coconut omg the kind you buy here is so over sweetened its nasty....so many fruits like guavas, fejoas and passionfruit you can get but no way am i paying 2$ for 1...funny story i found a packet of NZ silverbeet seeds because all they have here is swiss chard...i planted the seeds in a container they didn't come up...so i threw them in the garden the next year they came up lol...hmmm i have never seen a potato fritter or any fritter of any kind...my hubby hates cream corn so i throw in a handfull of frozen corn he doesn't notice the difference
there is a store here call the aussie pie shop there pies are ok...but they mince up everything i kinda miss the chuncks of steak so i make my own and the sausage rolls are crap to much bread crumbs and pepper....i made 3 lots for xmas day...beef ...pork and turkey...the turkey i had never made before so i just had a go at it my own recipe....i made 2 doezen of each and they were the first to go...even my own kids who are here from NZ said that they were awesome...who would of thought...
