| Summary |
This week Poh's road trip takes her to WA's remote East Kimberley - cattle country. Poh has always dreamt of having the full-on outback cattle experience and at Home Valley Station all her dreams come true. Famed as a location used by Baz Luhrmann in Australia, Home Valley Station (250,000 hectares) is run by its traditional owners. Poh gets down and dirty by taking part in her first muster. On a horse called Mr T, Poh is quickly dubbed a 'cowgirl' by JR, the pastoral manager teaching Poh how to muster. Home Valley also trains young Aborigines in areas such as stock work, tourism and hospitality. Tara Johnson, an apprentice chef at the station kitchen, takes Poh to a croc-infested river to show her how the locals enjoy their beef. Beneath the breath-taking Cockburn range, Tara cooks sirloin steak on an open fire using local bush ingredients.On through this incredible landscape Poh travels to Lake Kununurra where she meets Florian Johnen, a German who came to the Kimberleys as a backpacking chef and never left. Set on the edge of the lake, the restaurant where Florian works is a converted pump house and like his Beef in Potato Towers, it brings a wonderful layer of sophistication to this remote place. Perhaps Poh's greatest joy in the Kimberleys is her discovery of Boab, especially the root. She finds that it can be used in salads or cooked, and that it's even farmed. Poh's so impressed with it that she creates her own stir-fry to showcase this delicacy.PRODUCTION DETAILS:Poh's Kitchen on the road is produced by ABC TV.
