Damper is the bush-bread of Australia. Drovers (cowboys) baked Damper in camp ovens buried in the hot ashes of their camp fires in the Outback, but if you don”t want to build a camp fire in your backyard, damper can also be baked in a normal kitchen oven. To eat a damper: Cut the damper into rustic chunky slices, spread a liberal amount of butter on the damper and top with either jam, honey or Golden Syrup. YUM.. You just got to have a cuppa with it.

I have heard nothing but rave reviews about these scones my entire life! Flo Bejelke-Petersen is a bit of an Australian Icon and has an amazing reputation for her cooking skills. I am yet to try this recipe but look forward to doing so in the very near future. Look out for my review once I do! 🙂
A simple, super-quick-to-prepare recipe for an attractive and delicious appetiser, from the August/September 2005 issue of ‘Australian Vogue Entertaining + Travel’. The recipe recommends using good-quality store-bought puff pastry. For an attractive colour contrast, top half the puffs with the cayenne pepper or paprika as specified in the recipe; and the other half with one of these mixed with your favourite herb, finely chopped. Perhaps basil or thyme. You can have these fully prepared in advance, and bake just before they are required.
OK I’m sure they don’t eat these in Lebanon, but it does use Lebanese bread and is a quick way to cook a light pizza for one or two.
