chuck a 1/4ered bunny in a pot,slow boil/simmer the damn thing till the meat starts falling off the bone,chuck in a heap of rough chopped veg and spice + garlic and leave till the spud is soft enough to eat.then stir in some corn flour until its no longer soup and your good to go.dont forget the salt. :wink:

i do it like this for nearly all my tunnel mutton stews. :D

im just a fuckin cood cook,so i can... :wink:

ps:bunny is one of those meats that will take on whatever flavour you put with it,i recommend liquid chicken stock + a cube.you wont even know it was rabbit.

I love making my Chilli and Garlic Prawns when I go camping, simple and easy enough to make and its quick to knock up too.

Bag of frozen Prawns
some chilli chopped up
Some Garlic chopped up
Cream
Butter
Salt and Pepper

Throw some butter in a pan with the garlic and chilli and cook that off gently for a min or 2, add the prawns and cook those for a min or 2, add the cream and let that reduce down until the prawns are finished cooking, add some salt and pepper to taste, serve with rice or whatever else you think you would like to eat it with and get stuck in.

She's a great feed when out bush and something diff from the usual bangers or chops. :D

Many years ago as a young Scout in the Australian Army we never had time to cook the shit in the ration packs and so we were forced to eat it cold.

Had we of been Air Force pukes or Naval pus we would have been afforded Ala Carte Chefs, first class menus and without doubt psychologists to deal with our time away from civilisation.

There's nothing quite like the metallic taste of a B, C or D pack although since not having to now need go tactical one can now enjoy a can of Stag Chilli Beef or can of Beans cooked nice and hot on a portable butane stove top although I must confess, there's still nothing better then a meal cooked upon an old tractor plough or a fresh damper.
