I've been making this dish(the identical recipe, one that my mother-in-law used) since the 1970s, it's great when you're camping! And the whole family loves it, Anne.
ReplyDeleteIt's an absolute Australian classic, isn't it? I defy anyone who lived through the 70s not to still be able to recall its taste - I certainly do! - especially when served with that soggy over-cooked rice we all ate back then.
