I'm doing the Royal Wedding at my house tomorrow night.
Instead of doing English food, I want to do traditional Australian food.
It will be stand-up only, so I want to know what your favourite traditional Australian food is. Savoury, sweet, or whatever!
Suggestions please!
Have to have lamingtons!
Party pies
Lamingtons
Pavlova
Choc ripple cake
Pavlova and sausage rolls.
You can make choc ripple cake with Butternut Snap bikkies. It's sooo yum!
Tiny little bite-sized meat pies?
vanilla slice
Lamingtons...... meat pies.... yummmmmmmm........ wish I could fly LOL.
ETA how about damper bread rolls? and some Anzac bikkies or vegemite scrolls.
Fairy bread is aussie too
LOL, these are all traditional NZ foods!
Except Vanilla Slice, no idea what that is. And we call mini party pies Savouries.
(And we invented Pavlova!!):hide:
Dim sims!
Prawns on the BBQ.
Anzac Biscuits
Tim Tams
Fairy Bread
Damper for bread and dips. My mum used to make a beautiful dip, I could eat the whole thing it is philadelphia cheese with tinned smoked mussels, very yummy.
Mini burgers with pineapple of course :)
Twisties
Prawn ****tail

you could make vegemite pin wheels..I looove vegemite!
Throw in some Aussie wine and beer and you have yourself a pretty good menu with all your other suggestions here.

Sausage in white bread with onion and tomato sauce.
Fairy bread and Pavlova (you could do little mini ones)
Prawns!!! Just prawns, prawns & more prawns ;)
DS calls them Tawns....Yummmmmmmm... can I come too??? lol

Don't forget the cottees cordial (it's probably owned by some evil multinational these days like Milo :( )
Aeroplane jelly (shots)
Lamb cutlets - great finger food, got to cook them on the barbie though.
Prawns
Mini pavs
You could do little tiny pumpkin scones, with either a savory or sweet topping.
Roast lamb with mint sauce
not sure how out there you wanted suggestion, but what about roo/camel/croc meatballs on a toothpick?
lamb chops (think Sam Kekovich)
Fantails
Chocolate crackles?
Got to be lamb, done on the BBQ
chicken parma (I know they say it's Italian but I've never seen anything like it in Italy)
tim tams
aussie beer
aussie wine
cherry ripe slice
Hmm you can't do nuts can you? I was going to suggest macadamia and white choc biscuits.
Anzac biscuits, minties, honey joys
Jelly slice
You guys are awesome. Ideas are absolutely fantastic.

Lamb Cutlets on the BBQ!
Damm if DH was not allready going out I would love to have.
Have fun you will all have a ball
What time Divvy? I might be able to come after DD's netball.
From about 8pm... wedding starts at 8pm... but we'll be going until late I reckon!
I thought all you Aussies ate was prawns from the barbie and drank beer?
Another cultural myth comes crashing down (sob). Please tell me you all learn how to wrestle crocodiles at school and I might just be able to hold on.
Ok i have two more suggestions, especially for Ryn:
How about little thai-style crocodile-mince balls, on sticks?
And while you're serving things on sticks, how about some kangaroo kebabs.
:P
