KANGAROO PIE ( ACTUALLY, FISH IN PASTRY, WITH A CHEESE SAUCE!)
I'm posting this recipe for ZWT5. it comes from a lovely cookbook "Dine Around The World", a gift from a friend many years ago. From the book :" One hundred years ago, a Hungarian lady brought recipes to Sydney, but nobody could understand their Hungarian names. So this roll was called Kangaroo Pie, because filling it reminded people of a kangaroo filling its pouch." It doesn't specify the fish to use, but I would use hake, cod, tilapia, or similar.

- Defrost puff pastry and roll out to a rectangle, about 12 x 14 inches.
- Cube cooked fish fillets, mix gently with chopped gherkins and onion, spread on pastry and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Sprinkle parsley on top and roll up firmly.
- Place roll in a buttered dish, brush with beaten egg and and bake in pre-heated oven at 220C/425F for 15 minutes.
- Reduce the heat slightly and bake for another 15 minutes, until pastry is golden-brown.
- Sauce:.
- In a small saucepan, heat butter, stir in flour gradually, after a minute gradually add cream, stirring constantly, and bring to boil.
- Remove from heat, add grated cheese and stir until it has melted.
- If you prefer a thinner sauce, whisk in the milk.
- Season to taste with cayenne pepper, salt and pepper.
- Arrange roll on heated platter, garnish with parsley and serve with cheese sauce.
- A mixed salad goes well with this.
