Green Beans and Carrots Sauteed in Butter and Garlic

This is a simple way to prepare your veggies, but it looks really pretty and tastes delicious. The good thing about this technique is you can steam them ahead of time, and then sauté them at the last minute so you have a hot side dish ready with the rest of your meal.

Australian Cheese, Garlic and Chive Damper

Damper is a traditional Australian bread, made without yeast, and commonly made on a campfire in a cast iron camp oven. This is tweeked from Margaret E. Walker article in Outback Camping When Margaret was asked her what kind of tasty cheese, and learned that the word ‘tasty’ is used in Australia the way ‘sharp’ is used in the US. We thanked Margaret for helping us learn and had a good laugh at the thought of eating non-tasty cheese.

The Great Australian Pikelets

Yummy golden little pancakes served warm with jam or honey. Every Australian would have made these many times throughout their youth. My son had his little friend over today and I ended up making a second batch because the boys gobbled them up and begged for more.
