Four and Twenty Meat Pie is a traditional Australian savory pastry known for its hearty, flavorful filling. Typically encased in a golden, flaky crust, the pie features a mixture of minced meat, often beef or lamb, combined with onions, seasonings, and a rich, thick gravy. This quintessential Aussie dish is enjoyed as a quick snack or meal and has roots in British culinary traditions, adapted to suit Australian tastes. While meat pies provide protein and iron from the filling, their healthiness can vary depending on preparation. They are often high in calories, saturated fat, and sodium due to the buttery crust and gravy. For a healthier twist, some recipes use whole-grain pastry, leaner cuts of meat, or added vegetables for fiber and vitamins. Moderation is key when indulging in this iconic comfort food, making it a flavorful treat best enjoyed occasionally.
