• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1/2 tsp ground allspice

• 1 egg, beaten
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 cup canned diced tomatoes
• 2 tbsp brown sugar
• 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
• 1 tsp ginger, grated

Instructions

1. Step 1: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add 1 medium finely chopped onion and 2 minced garlic cloves, cooking for 4-5 minutes until softened and fragrant.
2. Step 2: Add 1 lb kangaroo mince, 1/2 tsp ground allspice, 1/2 tsp ground coriander, 1/4 tsp ground black pepper, and 3/4 tsp salt. Cook for 6-8 minutes, breaking up the meat until browned and cooked through. Remove from heat and let cool.
