Ingredients

2 x kangaroo fillets

1 tsp olive oil

3 tbs black peppercorns, crushed in a mortar and pestle

25g butter 

2 French shallots, thinly sliced

2 tbsp brandy 

200ml beef stock

100ml thickened cream 

Pinch of Salt

Spread the crushed peppercorns over a plate. Season the fillets with salt and roll in the peppercorns to completely coat.

Heat oil in a pan over a medium to high heat and fry the steak for 2-3 minutes on each side, turning frequently. Remove and rest. In the same pan add the butter and shallots and fry until golden then deglaze with brandy. Add the stock and bring to the boil. Reduce by 1/3 and then add the cream. Simmer again for a minute or until the sauce thickens.

Dress the spinach and zucchini with a splash of vinegar, oil and salt.

Cut the baguette in half horizontally with a serrated knife. Drizzle sauce over the baguette. Thinly slice the fillets and lay on the bottom piece of baguette and drizzle with more sauce. Garnish with the salad and sandwich together.
