Renowned Australian chefs Adam Liaw and Poh Ling Yeow are hitting the road for their fresh SBS series, Adam & Poh’s Great Australian Bites.
They’ll be journeying across Australia’s stunning natural backdrops to find out if a national dish can define us as a nation.
Episode five transports viewers to Launceston, Tasmania. The objective? To construct an extraordinary rendition of what some regard as Australia’s real national dish: the meat pie. The show promises to highlight not just the food but also Tasmania’s breathtaking West Coast, celebrated for its unparalleled air quality.
The episode isn’t confined to just Launceston and its vicinity. Adam and Poh will traverse the northern border of Tasmania, introducing viewers to some of the island’s lesser-known culinary gems. The chefs seek to encapsulate the flavours and textures of Tasmania, all while maintaining the essence of a classic meat pie.
Beyond their culinary mission, Adam and Poh will tackle a topic that has sparked countless debates among Australians: the appropriateness of adding sauce to a meat pie. It’s a burning question that has divided opinions and is set to provide a humourous twist to an already compelling episode.
Adam & Poh’s Great Australian Bites is scheduled to air this Tuesday, 5 September, at 8:00 pm on SBS Food and SBS On Demand. The series consists of eight episodes, each offering viewers a delicious and culturally informative experience.
Don’t miss this gastronomic journey that beautifully intertwines culinary expertise with Australia’s diverse landscapes and cultures.
