Hi
Today was Vappu, "May Day", the International workers' day, and to have a bit of fun, we had a nice dinner with kangaroo steaks in red wine sauce, green beans, champignons, and steakhouse fries.
Earlier this week I was doing the groceries, and Vera told me to get "some" meat, and since I had noticed them in our local Lidl, I made a little bit of an ex-tempore purchase and bought two packs of kangaroo meat.
Vera was at first a bit angry at me for choosing such an exotic meat product. But eventually we pulled it off and this dish was born:
Medium cooked, the meat was pretty good, a little bit livery, but juicy. Somewhat harder to chew but not too tough. Close to beef. It wasn't as gamy as I had earlier thought.
The red wine we used for the sauce and later with the dish, was Chilean Santa Cecilia Cabernet Sauvignon.
Vera deep fried more of those Munkki donuts, and we had them as a dessert with some sima.
Well it was fun, but I missed one traditional dish this Vappu because due to the pandemic, we couldn't go to the markets to get them. It's the fried vendace they serve at the markets. I'm a bit addicted to them, and eating them outside at the market is kind of the authentic way.
But there's always the next Vappu, and of course whenever we are at the markets in the Summer, we can get them even if there are no festivities.
But hey. I'll see you in the next one! Have a fun May Day! (Ours has passed 2 minutes ago I see.)

Kangaroo steak seems to be unorthodox meat and you enjoyed it with your meal along with red wine. I think this one is special as it served vappu!
You really have a great day.
Sometimes we just need to have a great day with ourselves and enjoy some wonderful moment

I didn't ate Kangaroo steaks yet because here's not available in my state. How about taste it?
Yeah..Yesterday was international workers day. But no more people celebrated it under covid-19 epidemic.
What a nice day! Everyone is having a good time and delicious meal!
Go really exotic really. My mother would say, how can you say you don't like it if you haven't tried them. Be very careful in this quarantine. We are going out just to buy food. @gamer00 I ended the 365 days of the other platform, now I join to follow your guide to your 366 #dailyandfresh. A hug.
I went and reblogged your first post. I find it very encouraging that my initiatives get followed by other people.
Yes, one has to be very careful when picking up groceries, and remember to wash them hands often.
Thanks you are my guide and example to follow. Very nice. I have another friend who will also start her daily photo with my format, there are several around there. If I only go out to buy food and with masks. @gamer00
kangaro steaks.I heard it first time. May be because kangaro meat is unavilable at my part of world. Recently I tried Ostrich meat. It was delicious and juicy.
I think I really need to check out ostrich meat. My boys had it last Summer when they were visiting their grandfather (my dad), and he took them to an ostrich farm. They said it was good.
Looks like it was cooked to perfection nice
Yay!
