Nice video Matt! I love to see a series of these. I have been trying to find the same kind of "one pot recipes" so that I can build of a kind of traveling cookbook that I can reference and use based on what is available wherever I happen to be.

Good idea!

Already maria's challenging you to eat squirrel mate, this could very quickly become "Challenge Matt to cook and eat the most disgusting thing you can think of".

Oh and have you considered putting the lovely Mrs Cashmore in front of the camera? Nothing sexist, I'm not hinting at gender roles in the kitchen, just that she's a lovely.

Oh, the recipe? I'll do it tomorrow, the Cracked Egg Omlette Sandwich, but I'll just go make one now.

one pot cooking

Hi Matt, definatly do a series of 'one pot cooking' recipies, but change your teflon/titanium saucepan for a wok. Now you can really do some cooking! The chinese are notorious for eating anything, and making it taste good. I use a small stainless steel wok, with a folding handle, from Eagle Creek, though food very easily burns if you are not vigilant. If you master the art of cutting every ingredient up in the right size, and cook them in the right order, then it's easy to be a Master Chef. On short trips, under a couple of days, I do most of the chopping beforehand, keep ingedients in airtight plasticbags, mix in readymade sauces, and....enjoy!

cook book for those on the road

with just over 6 years on the road I feel that I may now be able to advise on some recipes......I have been working on this over the last few months and plan to put this online on our website 2ridetheworld.com with podcasts too.
they are not there just yet as we are a little busy with getting ready to enter Siberia......
however check it out in a few weeks.

Love the videos as alwas Mat!

Try any of the old boy scout ideas? They are more or less one pot or can be made in to it.

Any way I have beans and rice from time to time even at home. Soak the beans over night or all day cook up the rice and drop in the beans add salt and any seasoning you like 15 to 20 min and you are done. I like it a bit on the wet side more a soup. Bout the same as your rice dish, dry the items will last a year or more.

If you need ideas any 3rd world people can set you up in Mexico they make some nice eats in one pot or a pan. Had some grasshoppers that are grate! Salt garlic chile something and grasshoppers crunchy and nutty fry it all up. Cut out the grasshopper and add beans and/or meat and I bet it will gust as nice. Beer helps lots and lots. Gust to help you not think you are eating bugs.

Hi Matt, good to see you're in front of the camera again.

One of my main meals is Chicken in black bean sauce.



I brown off the cubed chicken an onion and some green or red peppers then chuck in one of those little packets of chinese sauce. If you can't find fresh chicken then I've used frankfurters (Norway of course!), which are lovely. I've made a sauce from tomato puree when nothing else was available. Throw some rice in there and you've got a decent meal.



I'm looking forward to the series... Matt's Bush Tucker

chicken with green veg

Good moaning Matt, a favourite 'one pot', for two.
sunflower oil
2 chickenbreast
garlic
green paprika
sugar peas
spring onion
cabbage
beancurd/light miso
unsalted cashew nuts
Cut everything into thin slices,except the sugar peas and nuts. Stir fry in above order. I usually precut all ingredients at home,so this meal is best eaten on a weekend trip, also, buying so little quantity ingredients in the local market may be more trouble than it's worth in our part of the world.
Is it worth the hassle? Yes, it is so much better than expensive dehydrated packets, though they have their time, and with a good pilsner you are satisfaction guaranteed.

friggin awesome people...

I'm getting the camera out again tomorrow and going to give these a crack.... expect to see them tomorrow night sometime or perhaps over the weekend by the time I edit - if you want special 'credit' (like a website etc) rather than just your horizons handle drop me a PM :-)

I'm considering the idea of collating the recipes into a book and selling in aid of Riders for Health - I've got some printing contacts you see ;-)
