Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 275 degrees.

For filling, heat olive oil in a small pan, fry garlic for a few seconds until golden. Stir through spinach until leaves just wilt. Remove, mix in remaining ingredients well.

Cut a pocket in the side of the filets. Carefully spoon in lemon-spinach filling, pressing firmly. Place meat together around filling and tie with string. Rub surface with olive oil.

Place on small ovenproof tray, roast in preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove, cover loosly with foil, stand for 10 minutes before carving.

For sauce, heat oil in saucepan, fry vegetables over medium heat for 5 minutes or until softened. Stir in tomatoes and wine, simmer over medium heat for 5 minutes, until sauce reduces and thickens slightly. Season with pepper.

Carve kangaroo across the grain into 8 slices, using a sharpe knife. Serve with tomato sauce and cooked saffron rice, and extra parmesan cheese.
