Hi, I am looking for electric methods for roasting meat and cooking chips type meals. I try to avoid having the gas oven on for more than 20 minutes, to save gas. Does anyone use air fryer or multi-cookers in the caravan / awning? I am concerned the power will blow the campsite! Any advice welcome, thank you
What's yours? I like a treat every now and then and make a Toasted Seeded Sandwich with some lightly grilled Serrano ham laid on some chilli mango chutney with smoked salmon laid on the ham and topped with another slice of the grilled Serrano. Absolute bliss.
Having just returned from the self styled capital of the cheese world, namely France, I would like to say how much we love British Cheese. Yes, we did enjoy many different types of French Cheese and count some of them among our own favourites but I don't think British Cheeses get the plaudits they deserve. Nothing tastes…
A bit of nostalgia. Lincolnshire was once known as the Sheep County, mostly wool growing, but the meat wasn’t wasted. Now I haven't had a decent ‘lamb’ stew since my youth. Where can you buy ‘properly’ reared, grown and prepared mutton these days? The taste and texture of this, if my memory is correct, is a so much better…
When I was a lad there were only a hand full of different sausages you could buy but a visit to the supermarkets today and the number of ‘varieties’ is huge. Our local butcher makes only one, the proper Lincolnshire Sausage with the recipe being handed down from generation to generation in the family. Unfortunately you can…
Now I love liquorice, always have done since childhood when my gran, who regularly ate Pontefract Cakes, introduced me to this delight. Strangely, I can occasionally have a hiatus from this habit which has in the past lasted a few months or even years and then, seemingly out of the blue, I get that urge and just have to…
My daughter is scared of eating them but I have just polished off a kilo - with chips and mayo of course. It’s my stand by order in any street side cafe bar along the coast anywhere between Belgium and Brittany - but despite being here at home in Cornwall they are hard to find. OK I’m 20 miles inland and there might be…
Good evening, we’ve got a Cadac Grillo Chef 40 and was wondering if anyone had used it with a rotisserie? If so, what rotisserie have you got to fit in it? Can you use the Cadac for this function? We're going to France in the summer and normally take a charcoal BBQ with a rotisserie but the campsite we’re on this year…
Who doesn't love a marshmallow teacake, especially Tunnocks? Here is an interesting tale about the biscuit. When Royal Air Force pilots discovered chocolate-coated marshmallow teacakes expanded at high altitudes, they became “the subject of some rather unscientific in-flight experiments” in the 1950s. Air crews removed…
I hope you're all enjoying your journeys, wherever they may be taking you. Today, I wanted to start a discussion that combines two great loves of mine - caravanning and cooking. One of the things I love most about caravanning is those evenings when we've whipped up something truly delicious. There's nothing quite like…
