The Hangi was a great success again. We had to swap it to a Sunday as it rained all Saturday and the hole was one third full of water the night before - we were not even sure if it would disappear before we had to light the fire. This year we managed:
53 Adults
35 Children (all ages - from 6 weeks to 16 years)
50 bottles of beer (0,5l)
4 bottles of white wine
6 bottles of red wine
6 cartons of juice (1l)
12 bottles of mineral water (1,5l)
4 kg mini sausages
120 mini bread rolls
5 kg lamb
3 kg beef
5 whole chickens (1 x in the Hangi and 4 x on the spit)
15 potatoes
16 kumura - thanks M-Preis supermarket (the only stockist here in Tirol)
7 huge salads - thanks Ada, Ulli K., Liz, Andrea, Dani, Nickel and Ulli G.
5 different sauces - thanks Harry, Dani, Nickel and Petra
500 g ketchup
2 pavlovas - thanks Tania (Kiwi) and Todd (Aussie)
2 cakes - thanks Brixa and Annette
5 kg stir fry vegies
Lollipops - thanks Sandra
Less alcohol than last year due to it being Sunday and people have to work on Monday !!! The food was fantastic again and everybody raved about the lamb and the stir fry vegies that Mike made of course. All the food was gone which menas we worked it our perfectly this year. 4 and a half hours was just right as everything was cooked to a T !!
Here are a few photos for you all. I did my usual and forgot to take photos as it was all happening i.e. dinner and the kids playing when it was light. Even though this year was much cruisier due to a lovey bathtub beer cooler I still forgot cause I was gossipping to everyone !!!
Gregor brought a fantastic portable fireplace over and it extended the evening by quite a bit as it was quite chilly. The kids didn't seem to notice things at all as they were running all over the garden.
Take care - Lara, Mike & Charly xxxooo
