If I have power it would be my microwave rice cooker. I use it for everything other than cooking rice!

My Turbo oven! I bought one for the van and now have 2 . Decided using the oven is too hot in the summer and I hate cleaning it,so bought another Turbo for home. Most used electrical appliance I have ever bought in 45yrs of marriage.

Also clip lock Decor containers. Now have 2 sets of those.

Not my most used, but certainly my favourite is a little citrus juicer.

It makes my orange juice, lemon juice and now lime juice........love it.

it is helping me give up salt ( disbelief ) by making it easy to add fresh lemon or lime juice to my veges.

It makes fresh fish brilliant ! and with a little olive oil helps make a quick and easy salad dressing.

Easy to wash up, easy to store, easy to use.... and no need for power.

I've had mine for years and recently got another one for the van (saves me having to remember to take it with me).

Frypan for sure. It's part of an enameled English set of cookware I bought over 30 years ago at a disposal place for $20.

I just got one of these at one of my local Op-shops. Going to leave it in the Campervan.
Cheers,

I have a small non-stick saucepan which seems to get used every day, sometimes twice. It only cost about $6 so its been great value.

A non-stick pan that's somewhere between a frypan and a wok. I use it for stir fries, scrambled eggs, stew and curries and all sorts of stuff. If I need a lid I just cover it with alfoil.

If I need a lid I just cover it with alfoil, what a good idea...when you make toasted sangers jn the sandwich press put a folded piece of gladbake between the upper and lower presses and no more mess...saw that in Macca's Don't have to clean it, just chuck and replace gladbake.

One of our other most used items last trip was the butane cooker. Great little stove. Just stock up with cartridges before you go - they were a lot dearer in the country towns!

Thanks country road but I can't actually take credit for the alfoil idea - I nicked it off Jamie Oliver. It does work well though.

After seeing what MythBusters can do with it, I'd say duct tape would have to be the most useful item, if not the most used.

For us, it would have to be our barbie. Use it for everything including cooking the baked veges for a pork roast we had last night (it was cooked in our gas bottle cooker), then a peach cobbler was cooked in the barbie after the veges came out! What a night we had with friends here at BP Dam!!
