Hi Julie - just about anything you can
cook can be cooked in an electric frypan - cakes, roasts, casseroles - scones, garlic bread - you name it.
We always take ours - when we are going power - otherwise we take the Cobb - can be used in the same way.

Julie
I am impressed that you are so organised that you are seeking
recipes for your next trip. I guess to each his/her own but my concept of getting away is actually 'getting away' from appliances,
recipes etc.
You may find that a frying pan over a small fire or simple gas burner is more fun than an electric frying pan, does the job at least as
well, and doesn't involve carrying a generator. Unless you have a very long extension lead of course.
I find the
camp oven does most of the things an electric frying pan does.
Bob
PS If your post is a joke consider me 'sucked in'

Hi Julie
I can
cook just about everything in the fry pan at
home (fry, 'grill', stir fry, stew, roast, pancakes, pikelets, even cakes, but I don't take it camping. Our old 1 kva genny would not run it (our sons tried). Now we have the caravan, i do not take it, as it is heavy and bulky, and i can achieve the same meals in lighter fry pans on gas. My present one is a lightweight big flat based fry pan $7.99 from Woolworths. Cheap to replace if it comes to grief. It is also easier to wash than the bulky electric pan.

hi, as said above you can do anything in them electric frypan and as it's one of my most used appliances in my kichen i am never without
mine (as long as we have power), i make spag. bog, savoury mince, roasts, of course fried things, you can use it like a wok, make cassaroles, it's really endless to the things you can make up with it. years ago we went to
Port Fairy caravan park for 3 weeks and we took the electric frypan and a gas stove for cooking (we were tenting it then), but on unpacking when we arrived we realised that we had forgotten the gas bottle, so for 3 weeks the frypan feed us all, i made up quite a few new ideas but in all didn't miss the gas stove. there most prob would be quite a few
recipes on the net so google it and you might get some more ideas, good luck and happy cooking from chris,
ps i also have a Cobb and a Dreampot now which i would also not go camping without.

Hello Julie,
I don't
cook much as I take a two-legged recipe book with me on most trips. The
camp cook and I also take an electric frypan with us on most trips as every now and then we like to enter a caravan park to freshen up.
My recipe: Search with Google - "
recipes for caravanners" - and you will get plenty of useful hits, some of which direct you to books made specially for caravanners with frypans. Often good cookbooks for travellers can be found at camping/caravan expos.
You are obviously hopeful of compiling
recipes to take away with you. Using Google and "online
recipes for caravanners"you'll find plenty of sites such as
http://www.bestrecipes.com.au/. I think some of the
recipes under the "Best Recipes" tab would be just the ticket.
Happy travels,
Netnut
