Sweet and Peppery Strawberry Waffles

How to make Sweet and Peppery Strawberry Waffles

Prep Time: 10 minutes        |        Cook Time: 5 minutes        |        Serves: 8

Ingredients

• 3 punnets strawberries, green tops cut off
• 2 tbsp White Mill icing sugar
• 2 limes, juiced and zest
• ½ tsp Stonemill ground white pepper
• 2 x 360g Bakers Life Belgian waffles, warmed over the fire
• 300ml Farmdale dollop cream, to serve

Method

1. Tear off 2 large pieces of foil. Lay out the pieces in a criss-cross fashion. Line each foil case with some baking paper.
2. In a camp cooking bowl, tip in the strawberries, sprinkle with icing sugar, lime zest and pepper. Toss to combine.
3. Place strawberries into prepared foil parcel and secure tightly.
4. Place foil parcel onto a grill rack over hot coals and cook for 5-7 minutes, until warmed through and juicy. Remove from fire. Use gloves as the parcel will be steaming hot.
5. While the strawberries are cooking, toast/warm through the waffles in a toasting rack.
6. When strawberries are cool enough to open, squeeze lime juice into parcel and gently toss to combine.
7. Serve strawberries with waffles and dollop cream.

Tips: You can also use foil packaged containers and cover with a foil top for cooking.

Alternatively, you can cook these strawberries over the fire in a cast iron skillet.

Note: Strawberries can be cooked over the stove, on medium heat, for 5-7 minutes following the recipe above. Just in a saucepan instead of a foil parcel.

Camp Cooking - Pre-planning your cooking site

• Get organised before you start. Set up a table with all cooking utensils, chopping board and essentials like salt, oils, tongs, foil, grill and camping pots.
• Make sure you have enough wood. It is always best to bring your own.
• Clear an area and use rocks to build a fire pit. This will help with wind protection.
• Start a small fire with kindling then add the bigger wood. Have a designated spot next to your fire for coals and a stainless steel mesh grill.
• Start your fire an hour before cooking, so you have hot coals to drag to the side and cook over.
• Use good wood! Dry hardwood is the best.
• Grab some bbq coals and firelighters to use, as these last longer and give a more even heat than wood.
• A good fire takes about 40-50 minutes to be ready for cooking. Cook over a grill, as this will ensure even, controlled cooking and heat. The coals are ready to cook when they have turned grey.
