what is the national dish of Australia.?

Answer 1

The national dish is Australian meat pie (it's like a delicious mini pot pie). Australian meat pie refers to the most common variety of meat pie consumed in Australia. It is a hand-sized pot pie containing largely minced meat and gravy and consumed as a takeaway food snack. It is considered iconic in Australian culture and has been described by former New South Wales Premier Bob Carr as Australia's "national dish". Australians consume an average of 12 meat pies each per year. The popular brand Four'N Twenty Pie produce 50,000 pies per hour. The meat pie is heavily associated with Australian rules football and other sports as one of the most popular consumed food items whilst watching a game.

Another national dish is pavlova. It's also quite delicious. Pavlova is a meringue dessert named after the ballet dancer, Anna Pavlova. It is crispy on the outside but light and fluffy inside.

Yet another national food is vegemite. Frankly, I think it's disgusting. Vegemite is the registered brand name for a dark brown, salty food paste made from yeast extract, mainly used as a spread on sandwiches and toast, though occasionally used in cooking. It is popular in Australia and New Zealand and is known as a national food in both. It can also be found in many Australian diaspora communities around London. Food technologist Dr. Cyril P. Callister invented Vegemite in 1923 when his employer, the Australian Fred Walker Company, had him develop a spread from brewer's yeast after war had disrupted the supply of imported yeast spreads.

Just a side note, not everyone likes the same thing even if they are apart of the same nation... But id have to say Meat pies, BBQ's (such as Sausages, steaks etc.) , I think Vegemite seems to be only an Aussie thing for some reason... Fish and chips... But as a "National Dish" I dont think we would have one since there are so many different cultures in Australia but other than that a BBQ probably =)

Answer 3

Because Australia is so very big, and most of the population live around its edges, there is no 'obvious' national dish, though pretty much everywhere if you order a hammburger it will come with a slice of pickled beetroot (I kid you not!) on it! In the SouthEast they eat a square meat pie called something like a "four by two", and they do eat a lot of roo meat, which is very good.
