Muntries
Muntries (also known as munthari, muntaberry or monterry) are a long time favourite of our traditional people. They hold a significant place in the historical diet of the Narrindjeri people of the Coorong in the south-east of South Australia. The fruit played a major part in the diet, not only when fresh, but also after being dried and stored for the winter months. They were often traded with other tribes, usually after being pounded into a paste which was then dried.
Early settlers used the berries in pies. The fruit can be used fresh in desserts and fruit salads, or cooked in pies, chutneys, jams and sweet or savoury sauces.
Experiment! Muntries can be used anywhere that you would use apples or sultanas
