kumquat tea cakes

  Here is a variation on the almond and orange cake I posted about a few weeks ago. It came about after receiving my fortnightly veggie box. There is always some new and unusual produce included, and last week’s surprise was a handful of kumquats.

Tasting the culinary delights of Darwin!
Now that the weather is warming up in northern Australia, we no longer cook and eat inside the truck. Setting up camp outside is one of the things I look forward to every day after a long drive on the Territory roads.
Nearly 3 weeks into our trip to the Red Centre of Australia, and as mentioned in the previous post, we’ve been isolated and fending for ourselves.
The current breakfast situation.
An unplanned return home for a few weeks meant bonus home cooked meals for the kids!!! Oh the joy of spreading out in a full kitchen with my favourite cookbooks. Swipe left for some classics and comforting dinners.
One of the things I miss when we’re on the road for months? The familiarity of our local haunts and the diversity of dining choices around Sydney.
My favourite camp dinner from our last week on the road. The weather was atrocious, gale force winds and non stop rain. Forget bbq and sundowners on the beach, it was all about inside stove top cooking and staying warm. Like this winter vegetable #fricassee of exotic mushrooms and Brussel sprouts, with #panfried pork ribs. I first use olive oil to cook, then add butter and crispy shallots at the end for the vegetables, chili salt for the meat.
Eating on the roads of Outback Queensland. Van cooking takes many forms: a nice Bbq when weather allows, grazing plate after a long drive, quick brekkie on the run, something healthy when we can, …finally reached Coffs Harbour and a kitchen I can take over !!
Time to wander and explore, less eating out, more van cooking. Using the local produce collected along the way, enjoying the natural settings in Far North Queensland.
