Out of choice I already use a camp oven quite often. After many unsuccessful outcomes I came across this hint which has been of great help with my cooking from chocolate cake to full roast.

This is my own 'discovery'. Making a Boiled Fruit Cake one day [ on Cape York,] I used Sour-sops instead of Pineapple. Makes a very moreish cake. Lucky if it lasts a day. Cheers, xina. -- Edited by xina on Tuesday 7th of July 2009 06:56:32 PM

This is so simple but very yummy. While in WA at Walpole we were spoilt by our neighbours who brought us over some hot corn damper straight from the camp oven. I don't know the quantities but there were only 2 ingredients SR flour and a tin of creamed corn (and a little herb/spice whatever you fancy.) I w...

Hey fellow travellers and would be nomads I would just like to share my story on basic cooking and how easy it is to buy fresh fish and cook simply.
