the appetizer:

Though once dominated by British culinary tastes, Australian cuisine is now influenced by a variety of Mediterranean and Asian foods introduced by immigrant cultures. Many people living outside of Australia think of native Bush Tucker when they contemplate Australian food, but Southeast Asian, Greek, Lebanese and Italian influences are now more common.

2. Remove from the bag, then cut a length ways pocket into each steak and stuff each with 1/4 of the blue vein cheese.

3. Heat frying pan until smoking and cook steaks to your liking, and allow to rest for 5 minutes in foil.

4. Using the same pan add the rest of the oil and the remaining ingredients.
