A WOMAN who has been camping for more than 40 years has revealed her top tricks for eating on the go – without scrimping on taste.<\/p>\n
Karen Wright, 65, said she went on her first caravan trip with her family when she was 12.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
However, the food was never the finest dining.<\/p>\n
She told Sun Online Travel: "My mum used to always cook out of packets and tins, it wasn't anything fancy.<\/p>\n
"People don't think it's easy to do it in caravans."<\/p>\n
Since then, the former Bake Off star has travelled Europe in her caravan with her partner John.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Following her appearance on Great British Bake Off in 2018, she was inspired to keep cooking<\/span> while on the go, a journey she shares in her upcoming book Meals on the Move.<\/p>\n She said: "I wanted to make dinners every evening that I would be happy to serve in a restaurant or a hotel.<\/p>\n "When I cook in the caravan, I like to do everything on a hob and within 30 minutes, otherwise you will use up all your gas<\/span>."<\/p>\n Some of the best meals she cooked were while in their native country, including puttanesca pasta and bruschetta while in Italy.<\/p>\n <\/picture>SEA YOU THERE <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>LIGHT IT UP <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>DOUBLE CHECK <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>POLE POSITION <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Karen explained: "The easiest meals are the ones that don't include meat.<\/p>\n "When I was in France it was hard to find something like one skinless chicken thighs, with everything on the bone."<\/p>\n "I also try and make everything in one pan – I don't like having to do much washing up! <\/p>\n "So no side sauces, and put it in together."<\/p>\n Pancakes are also easy, she admits, and said there was one simple dish which is her favourite.<\/p>\n She added: "Mushroom bourguignon is my favourite – it's just sauteeing mushrooms with wine<\/span> and garlic and you can even sip a glass of wine while it's cooking."<\/p>\n Another way is to "cheat" meals, the former Bake Off star explained.<\/p>\n Karen continued: "I wanted to do a pizza – so I made one using a tortilla wrap in a frying pan. <\/p>\n "It worked well and even used tomato ketchup as the base along with a handful of cheese<\/span> and spinach.<\/p>\n "It's a cheat pizza but it's so simple without having to heat an oven up."<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Another camping expert has revealed the big mistake people make when putting their tents up.<\/p>\n And here's the pre-holiday check that no one ever does – but can ruin your trip.<\/p>\nMost read in News Travel<\/h2>\n
