Optus Stadium culinary ambassador Matt Moran’s new footy burger is kicking serious goals, and it’s so not what you’d expect to eat while you’re sitting in the stands.
Sporting a soft, milk brioche bun with slow-cooked Margaret River lamb shoulder, an apple slaw, mustard gravy and a mint salsa, it’s safe to say I was excited to dig in.
While wearing a light-coloured silk top wasn’t my smartest idea, it really didn’t hold me back when it came to taking my first bite.
Channelling my inner MasterChef judge, I thought deeply about what eloquent and colourful commentary I could bring to the table. Do I focus on the tantalising texture combination? The refreshing taste of the old-fashioned mint? The gorgeous structure that the bun held the entire way through? There were so many things I wanted to say — but I couldn’t put the damn thing down.
It reminds you of something, and I wasn’t quite sure what until sous chef Michelle Rose dangled the idea of a hearty Sunday roast in front of me.
A-ha! That was it. The difference with this Sunday roast is that it boasts only Western Australian ingredients with fresh buns from a Freo bakery. Oh, and the lamb slow roasts for a whopping 18 hours.
If you’re heading along to the derby this weekend, you’re in luck. The aptly named Matt’s Burger will be available for Sunday’s match. My advice? Make sure you don’t miss out on this Moran goodness.
There’s not a whole lot left to say. This beautiful, flavoursome burger really does speak for itself.
