Pancakes on a tin can!

Scout Meeting 23/02/09

During Shrove Tuesday week we decided to mark the occasion by cooking pancakes on top of tin cans!
The bite sized pieces of flour, eggs, milk & water were poured on top of the tins and heated underneath by tea-lights.
The troop constructed the portable heaters themselves using some basic tools such as snips, a file and a drill.
Once the pancakes had been flipped & browned off nicely on both sides, they were covered lightly with sugar and lemon and devoured by the hungry cooks.

Over the next few weeks we will be creating menu's for our upcoming camps and cooking some more adventurous dishes.
Did someone mention a 'cardboard box' oven?!
