Kangaroo is a lean, healthy meat, but the low fat content means chefs should be careful not to overcook

Generally speaking Kangaroo can be prepared in the same manner as other red meats – pan fried, BBQ or roasted

Prior to cooking meat should be coated with a good quality oil – olive, peanut and sesame are all suitable

If pan frying or BBQ both sides should be quickly seared, turn only once to retain the moisture
