Instructions

Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp sesame oil in a large wok over high heat until shimmering. Add 3 minced garlic cloves and 1 tbsp minced ginger, stir-frying for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 2: Add 1 lb thinly sliced kangaroo loin and 1 tsp ground wattleseed to the wok. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the meat is browned but still tender.
Step 3: Toss in 1 medium thinly sliced red capsicum, 1 cup trimmed snow peas, and 3 sliced spring onions. Stir-fry for another 2 minutes until vegetables are crisp-tender.
Step 4: Stir in 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp honey, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Cook for 1 minute until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the meat and vegetables.
Step 5: Remove from heat and gently fold in 2 tbsp finger lime pearls for a fresh citrus burst.
Step 6: Serve immediately over steamed jasmine rice or noodles for a bright, native-inspired stir-fry.
