Idea 1: Kanga-Ragu

Simple Pasta but why not make it extraordinary! This delicious Kangaroo Ragu is packed full of citrusy flavour from our Blood Orange Agrumato, an unctuous treat that is bound to impress..

8. Lower the heat to a simmer and place the lid on
9. Cook for 1 hour and check moisture level to ensure it doesn't dry out
10. Cook for another hour checking intermittently and stirring
11. After 2 hours, remove a piece of Kangaroo Tail and shred with a fork, if the meat falls off easily, remove all meat from the pot and shred off the bone
12. Return the meat to the pot and cook with the lid off until thickened slightly
13. Cook Pappardelle Pasta in boiled water until al dente
14. Add the cooked Pappardelle to the Kangaroo Ragu
