alright guys, any good ideas on camping cookery? ive got a great fruit cake, soak 1kg of mixed fruit over night in either chocolate milk ok orange juice, then mix in some self raising flour till turns into a raw cakey mixture then bake in the camp oven!! bloody marvelous, the longer the fruit soaks the better at least a day and you can add brandy etc what ever takes your fancy!

Has anyone got any better ideas or in particular one for bread? id be much obliged, ta

Chris

Good evening Christoflam.

As a former Chef in our Senior service,(RAN) I would leave out the milk, as it could curdle, and go off, while you soak the fruit, over night, The orange juice, i would keep to have with the Vodka, and in it's place i would use our famous Bundaberg rum, just soak the fruit in the rum till it's soft for 12 hours, and follow what you have said with the flour,......Enjoy it.

Cheers for now...William H.....Bunbury....WA

I fully endorse the comments about Bundy rum.
A little off topic - SWMBO was cooking plum puddings before christmas - following the recipe that had fruit soaked in rum and brandy. When she got to the Christmas cakes she wondered why there was no Bundy left but plenty of brandy. Best plum puddings that we have ever had!!

Christoflam, did you have a look at the Article Overview beside your Post - we all did heaps of posts at one stage (can't remember when it was tho) and some marvellous recipes for the camp was the result. I printed most of them off and keep them in the map folder in the vehicle and in a plastic folder in the kitchen of the camper.
