Australia is a LONG way from most other countries - how easy is it to find the ingredients Australasians use or suitable substitutes? It's not as hard as you might have believed to find the ingredients, you'll need to make authentic Aussie dishes. Will your family and friends welcome the new cuisine? I'm betting they will! Australia has many delicious recipes waiting to be tried. It is typically warm in Australia, and that means Australasians barbeque a lot. You'll find barbeque grills (called "barbies" Down Under) behind homes and at campgrounds and beaches there. Street food is sometimes barbequed, like BBQ sausage, garnished with fried onions and served on white bread.
